Should students use mobile technology in the classroom?

Thesis Statement: Even though opponents argue that students should not be allowed to use mobile technology in the classroom mobile technology should be allowed in the classroom because mobile technology makes easier to note taking, helps understanding; and instructors have to offer best studying environment for students.

Topic Sentences1. The first reason that mobile technology should be allowed to use in the classroom is that mobile technology helps students’ note taking.
2. Secondly, because mobile technology helps students’ understanding, mobile technology should be allowed to use in the classroom.
3. Lastly, the reason why mobile technology should be allowed to use in the classroom is students can learn the way of controlling themselves.

Counter Argument: On the other hand, some people claim that mobile technology should not be allowed to use in the classroom. First of all, opponents think using mobile technology in the classroom causes cheating. They insist students use their smart phone for looking up answers on a phone in the class, texting for answers within the class, texting for answers outside of the class, or capturing a picture of the test for others during the examination; however, it can be prevented by collecting the mobile technology during the test time. When instructors and students make rules of submitting all of mobile technologies for the examination, cheating worries will be solved.
