In Attention Disorder or Not, Pills to help in school by Alan Schwarz he brings to light that there are physicians providing stimulants to struggling students, but not for A.D.H.D. He's actually trying to boost their academic performance. Which is something that may be very dangerous or very helpful they do not know as of now.

     This article mostly provides quotes from doctors and physicians. It also provides quotes from a superintendent of a school. Something that stood out to me is that doctors even consider anything like this. This is shocking and surprising in my eyes, it shows that trusting people is getting harder and harder these days.

      I think that this shouldn't be allowed because it's giving them something that's not for them and could eventually hurt them. Before I read this article I thought that all doctors were helpful but in a safe and sure way. This is not a sure way to help people, the takers of this pill could actually have side-effects and things could start going south for them. I think this is very important because it is a serious topic that could affect our future.

     This article made me wonder about a lot of things. One thing is if a doctor has ever given me something that I don't need to improve my performance in anything, such as steroids for sports. I could find this out by looking at my medical records and looking up the medicines and their primary uses.

       In using iPads before bed 'can lead to a poor night's sleep', Stephen Adams brings to light that ipads can cause a lack of sleep. It is not just iPads it is any type of tablet. Phones are bad too but not as bad as a tablet due to the bigger screen.

       This article includes lots of details but it's mostly from researchers. Something that stood out to me and shocked me is that red and orange light doesn't affect you , because your brain thinks the day is just ending. This shows me that your brain is very smart but can be tricked very easily.

       This article doesn't change my way of thinking at all because I do not care how many hours I sleep. I still can get up and do what I have to do no matter how much I sleep. It is not really that important to me but maybe it is to my close friends and family. Before I read this I thought that it could affect you anyway but not sleep maybe the way your brain thinks

      This article makes me think about a lot of things. This makes me think about if my phone has ever hurt my sleep. I could find out the correct answer if I do an experiment before I go to bed using my phone. Or I could have my brother try it too and get a positive answer to the experiment. I'm sure every one would want to find out the answer.

    In "Texting May Be Taking a Toll" by Katie Hafner she says that texting is taking a toll on teens. She points out that teens are texting very much and it may not be good for them. Almost all of the professors think that texting could be very bad.

    This article includes quotes from teen texters. It includes a stat that states that the average messages for teens per month is 2,272. This is shocking and surprising to me , I would never had believed that if somebody told me this on the street. This shows that texting might actually be addicting and hard for people to stop.

    I think that this is a thing that will not stop anytime soon. I can't think of a way that it could be stopped unless parents take the phones. That would be a terrible thing to do because they might have an emergency and no way to contact anyone. But it still is a good article and a great way to inform readers of texting and the worries that come with it.

     This article made me wonder about plenty of things. It made me worry about how much of my classmates text too much. I could try to find the answers from asking my classmates about how much they text and how often. I also want to know how their parents feel about their number of texts. This made me wonder about a lot of things but these are the most important.

         In "Studies Find More Students Cheating, With High Achievers No Exception" Richard Perez Pena reveals that cheating is happening at great schools. He explains high achievers are just as likely to do it as others. Also teachers are not doing much to stop it as said in the article.

         In the article it includes quotes from professors. One quote that I paid attention to was that few schools put any emphasis on integrity,academic or otherwise and colleges are more indifferent than high schools. This shows that schools may not really care. This really made me confused since I thought that a college education would be more than high school education but not if they don't care about what you do.

         I think that cheating is going to be around for a long time. I can't think of a way that people can stop it unless you separate each and every single student. So to me you will just have to deal with the cheating for many years unless they decide to do something as crazy as that. If people put their expectations down and stop putting so much pressure on students maybe they wont feel the need to cheat.

         This article made me wonder about cheating at my school. Do students at my school cheat on big test, or are we following the rules? Also do any teachers try to stop it or just let it happen? I might find the answers from interviewing teachers at school and some students. This is a big problem in schools as it says in the article so getting to the answer will be helpful.
