My social issue that I chose was cell phone use in the classroom. Cell phones have evolved over time and have incorporated in to the daily lives of society. Students are the largest user of mobile technology and it has found it’s way into the classroom. Teachers, administrators, counselors and principles, all have different opinions on the issue. Some believe that cell phones have no place in the classroom because they are a distraction and can be used for wrong. I believe that cellphone should be used in class for educational reason. Using mobile technology could be a great help to students. Allowing cell phones in class would allow the students to take quick and easy notes, allow them to contact the teacher if they are away or home sick. Cellphones in class would also provide the ability to report any inappropriate behavior. Some of the cons of having cell phones in class would be that some student wouldn’t use them for education.

Would you like to use your phone in class if it was for educational purposes? What are some ways you can incorporate cell phone use in a productive way.

I did not take as much interest in the Superbowl this year over other super bowls mainly because i didn’t like any  of the teams that played this year but what i did take interest in was the Superbowl commercials. This year wasn’t as crazy as last year’s commercials but companies did not fail to entertain the audience. These are the 3 commercials I chose from this year’s Superbowl that I thought were the best. In the first commercial, it was an entertaining commercial because it had a full out war going on, and it all of sudden just stopped when the “Bud Knight” came in and the common people were excited when they thought that he was going to fight for them but he went passed them and got a pack of Bud Lite. He came back and told the people he had plans and they looked disappointed but them he used his magic sword and scared off the enemy and it went to the Bud Light screen. The target audience for the ad is defiantly towards adults who drink beer. The second commercial is 2 people eating different products and lip syncing while the background is changing. It was a entertaining ad that was directed towards everyone who eats chips and drink MTN DEW. The last commercial that i chose was the visit Australia commercial. The commercial was entertaining and informing. It had Chris Hemsworth thinking he was auditioning for a adventure movie but it turned out to be a video all about Australia and the things you  can do there.
