The question of whether professors should allow students to text during class is subjective and can depend on various factors. Here are some considerations to weigh when evaluating this issue:
Ultimately, the decision of whether to allow texting during class is at the discretion of the professor, considering the specific context, academic discipline, and teaching approach. Striking a balance between creating an engaged learning environment and acknowledging individual circumstances can contribute to a productive and respectful classroom setting.

Technology may be used as part of the educational process (in-class research, online assessment, etc.) However, for personal gain (texting another individual, scrolling social media, etc. ) then NO. We are a tech=free zone ..... unless informed in advance to bring a device for an activity, then it is closely monitored.
Exception: SWD.
Bonjour, à mon avis , il ne faut pas autoriser l'envoi des SMS en classe pour les raisons que vous avez évoquées mais en cas d'urgence, je préfère laisser l'apprenant sortir téléphoner ( régler ce qu'il a faire)et retourner en salle de cours au lieu d'envoyer un SMS et peut être qu'il ait une suite ....
The usage of mobiles to send text messages in the class should be prohibited. The gross effects are many: It causes disunity, distaction and also promotes gossip among the students. In a case of emergency, the students should call the authority into notice.
If its urgent I see nothing wrong with it. Of course it should not be done frequently and should not disrupt the class delivery.
In my oppinion, teachers should avoid texting during the class. It does not give any benefit to students
School is supposed to train learners for real life situations. Questions we should ask ourselves is is it correct to be on the phone during an official meeting, workshop or conference. A learner needs to pay attention and be attentive in class. Allowing students to text during a lesson will throw the lesson into chaos.
As far as I am concerned this can only be allowed if it is part of the lesson and in structured and has a conclusion
Should professors allow students to text during class? Mostly the answer is no, because the student is not allowed to bring the phone into the school according to the law
No because the student can't focus the lesson if he is using his cellphone during class hours.
