Bans don’t work, so administrators explore using mobile devices to teach

More than 100 students were suspended last month at Wilbur Cross High School in New Haven, Conn. They weren’t bullies. They weren’t cheating. They weren’t caught smoking in the bathrooms.

They had cell phones.

Michelle Wade, a spokeswoman for the New Haven Public Schools, said students had been warned since September that cell phones and other portable electronics weren’t allowed on school grounds.

“It was getting just too disruptive to the learning process,” Wade said.
