I'm for this. Reason is that it will teach our kids throughout their youth that life goes on without the smartphone. I think that lesson will help prevent addiction/dependency on the phone and internet and allow them to learn how to balance access with individualism. As teacher has said, it also benefits the classroom. I think probably greatly. Students can forget about whatever else, and really engage the lesson in front of them. Their only peer engagement during the no-phone hours will have to be face to face and personal. I think today's youth have atrophied as far as personal engagement with other actual flesh and blood humans. For all these reason's this sounds like a good idea to me. It will also be good to assess in a year as to the benefits.
