Ethics

[Just in case this post might be misunderstood, I've substantially edited it.]

In this semester's law of lawyering class at UC-Berkeley, I initially banned internet access but allowed them to vote mid-way through the semester on whether they wanted it back.  The results:

Should internet usage be allowed in the classroom for the rest of the semester?

Yes - 34

No - 18



Have you paid more attention in this class than in others where internet is not overtly banned?

Yes, I've paid more attention. - 24

No, I've paid the same amount of attention. - 26

I don't use internet in any of my classes. - 3 





In what way is classroom internet usage distracting for you?

I'm distracted by my own usage -  40

I'm distracted by others usage -  9

My attention never waivers - 11
