Too dense to get it yourself huh? The point is that it being newer means teachers weren't able to adjust to it because they're not used to it. As time goes on and people start getting used to it they'll use it more. Just like laptops.
It has nothing to do with being "Newer", schools have been dealing with items that distract students during class time long before I existed and will continue long after.

I saw plenty of LapTops / Dumb Phones at my Uni, and the same stuff was happening back then.

Some people were using their LapTops appropriately, some weren't, some were goofing off.

The device/distraction will change, but the fundamentals will stay the same.

The point of these "Bans" is to help students focus on learning from the Teacher/Professor when they're teaching in class. Especially during Lecture halls.

The ban is there to help them remove "distractions".

That's why there was all those studies about testing students in A/B groups, doing mass trials.

Collect scientific data to back their hypothesis.

It has nothing to do with "Out of Class" usage of device for course work and projects.

The times will change, the item that "Distracts the students" may change, the core point remains the same.

Remove distractions from the ClassRoom so the Students can focus/learn.

It's too easy and tempting to self distract in a ClassRoom environment, that's why the policies exist.

Your posts here and your ignorance is proof enough.
More baseless statements

Yep, people use those devices to learn. Exactly. That's the whole point. Smart devices are good learning tools and they'll continue to get better as people continue to develop technology for education. That's why your proposal is moronic.
Smart devices can also be misused easily when left in the hands of the student.

You're assuming that every student will use them appropriately, at all times for educational reasons.

That's not a reaslistic assumption. When one student gets distracted, it affects other students, and they think it's ok to be distracted during the middle of class.

That's why the policies to "Ban the Smart Devices/LapTops" during Class Time came about in the first place.

It's to remove distractions in Class so that students can more easily focus on what the teacher is teaching. And no student could distract other nearby students by being off task.

If you went to Uni, you would understand this basic concept of how easily students get distracted and how it affects others nearby.
