my opinion about the use of Blackberries in class...

I think that the use of Blackberries in class would be allowed with the responsibility of each student. The use of this cell phones shouldn’t be negated but is necessary regulate it. This control depends on the education and culture of each student. As college students and future professionals the use of this equipment is also part of our educations. We have to known when and in what circumstances is necessary use the Blackberry: an important call, an emergency, a project pending is doing in other place and you need to know about it, etc

On the other hand, I understand the arguments of the university to implement this rules, because the students don´t be concentrated in class to see their phones for others reasons different to emergencies…. this is disrespectful for the teachers, classmates but this is also a disrespectful for themselves because everyone is paying for a “ knowledge that not receiving” thanks to own attitude. Just, college is worried about the formation of Javerianos students and which is the image of the university we will show later?
