Most people would say their iPad keeps them organized and productive or entertained and informed, but we all know what everyone does when the teacher isn’t looking; play games. IPads are definitely a huge distraction.

Don’t get me wrong– I love having iPads– but I have to admit they are a huge temptation. Say you’re working on a project, with your iPad right I front of you. Suddenly, you notice the teacher isn’t looking, ” Just one game…” you think to yourself, “she’s won’t notice…just 5 minutes.” Next thing you know you spent 45 minutes trying to beat your high score on Flappy Bird and now have a whole project to do for homework. The temptation took over you.

Also, sometimes, when the screen is black, you start to look at yourself. ” Man I’m really having a bad hair-day…” you think as you start to wonder off, “maybe I can’t just…” Next thing you know you are totally zoned out trying to fix your hair.

Even though iPads are a neat thing to have, to be honest, they are definitely the most distracting thing I have ever had in school.
