    The phones may enhance their distraction

    Yes, that is why phones are increasingly banned during school. A whole host of distractions are banned during school.

    Engage with programs that make education more interesting, and help students find better ways to learn.

    We can (and should) do both!

      You literally cut off the other half of that idea that explains the phones are not the center of the problem, and said they are the center of the problem.

      If you want to miss the point and argue in bad faith, go ahead I guess.

      You won’t change my mind: School needs to be engaging enough that students don’t seek distractions. Phones, books, clicky-pens, daydreams, doodles, writing, passing notes, all fulfill the same exact purpose of amusing a bored mind.
