Mobile phones in schools. If you’re a teacher, school staffer, or a
parent, you’ve likely got six hundred opinions about this very topic,
and you will have had six hundred arguments about it this week. In
Australia, push has come to shove, and several states have banned the
use of mobile phones during school hours entirely. Others are
contemplating doing the same.
In the state of New South Wales, the current opposition party has made
it clear it will implement a ban if elected. Wildly, the party wants
to use mobile phone jamming technology to enforce this ban whether
students intend to comply or not. Let’s take a look at how jammers
work in theory, and explore why using them in schools would be madness
in practice.
