The sentence that includes a comma splice is:
"Cell phones should be permitted in schools, they can function as an educational tool."
A comma splice occurs when two independent clauses are joined with just a comma. In this case, "Cell phones should be permitted in schools" and "they can function as an educational tool" are both independent clauses.
