They are distractions to the entire classroom. Kids text each other during class, cheat on tests, and try to catch teachers doing something wrong.
We had a very sophisticated note passing system in one class in High School. That was due to the fact that the teacher was terrible who made the topic uninteresting. No difference to today's messaging. Cheating? I can only guess you are presuming this to be a rampant issue.Only a foolish teacher would allow phone usage during a test. I had college professors that read from their book the whole class, I would have loved to have had a video/audio of that great interactive teaching method. I can only guess this poster has not been in school for quite a while.
