I have no doubt that it can improve the class dynamic! Trust is always a good thing to have a good respect relation between a teacher and students!

And I agree that having a notification and not being allowed to look at it is not useful, if I remember the study actually showed that. But what is definitely better is not being notified at all. To test that, they asked every student to leave the phone in the hallway, so in another room. I'm not talking about the feasibility (risk of theft and other things), but there is a clear impact.

And I was in HS at the same time as you, but honestly, the class dynamic today is way different than it used to be even less then 10 years ago. It surprised me during my internship! I actually had the same policy as your teacher (you can use your phone, respectfully), but clearly I didn't master it... πŸ˜
