Sure, that's one of many excuses given for their existence.
But the underlying point, obviously, is: why are students not interested in paying attention? What is wrong with these classes? We're talking about an age group whose attention is easily kept by things that are fun, exciting, interesting, engaging.
If classes aren't that, then hall passes don't help.
- saagarjha 7y agoIt takes a non-trivial amount of effort to make classes that are engaging to students, especially if you're trying to cater to all of them. It's a lot easier to just slap a band-aid over it and try to prevent "distractions" (which, in my experience, doesn't really help: kids are exceptionally brilliant at finding ways to fidget or play with the most ordinary of things when they're not interested).
