The only time I ever text in class is to contact my mother or grandma. I often have to get ahold of them to bring me my migraine meds, not allowed at school without a parent giving them to you, so I will text them in class. I don't know anyone who uses texting as a method to cheat. Its quite obvious and stupid. Most kids are more creative then that. If people are going to assume that they are cheating and such through text message then they need to start checking pens, watter bottles, legs, arms, shoes, and under the desk. Kids are much more creative then people think. Someone had the answers to a chem test in one of those clicky pens that spin and say stuff. Getting fined for texting isn't going to stop it. Kids will just get better at.
But can't you go out of class to send the text message to your mom or grandma?
I attend college classes and it kind of bothers me to hear little trills and vibrating when I am in the middle of a test.
