I would like to introduce a new law in my country. The law is to limit the use of mobile phones in schools, especially during lessons. Nowadays, a large number of students spend too much time on social media instead of focusing on their education. As a consequence, they become less productive and sometimes even addicted to their phones. This move would require students to keep their phones switched off or in special markets during class hours. They could only use them in emergencies or during breaks. I believe this change would help students concentrate better, improve their academic performance, and communicate more with classmates face-to-face instead of online. In addition, teachers would be able to conduct lessons more effectively without constant distractions. I think this will become quite popular among teachers and parents. The main reason is they are often worried about students’ screen time. However, some teenagers might dislike it at first because mobile phones are an essential part of their their lives. Even so, I believe they would eventually understand the benefits of this rule. I came up with this idea after noticing how often students check their phones, even during important lessons. In my opinion, technology is useful, but it should be controlled properly.
