Some people often believe that kids should not be allowed to use their cell phones while they are in school. Others think that this should not be the case. This essay will take part and discuss both sides since phones are an important learning feature, but at the same time, they can cause distraction. In my opinion, infants should have access to gadgets while in school as long as they use them accordingly for educational purposes.
Nowadays, cell phones are an essential part of our everyday life, they are a great source of entertainment, information, and education that people, especially young ones can access at at any time, research a variety of information in a matter of seconds, making them a great tool for academic purposes inside or outside school hours. For instance, students who wish to prepare for an English test can access diverse YouTube channels where they can find tips and tutorials on how to properly prepare for it.
On the other hand, since phones are deeply involved in different contexts, they can also be a major distraction for younger generations, resulting in physical and mental consequences. The inappropriate use of devices during school hours may affect kids in their academic performance, causing distractions Moreover, infants can develop sleep disorders, sight issues, and lack of physical activity.
In conclusion, while some believe in the prohibition of phones during kids’ study time because it can be distracting and can affect their academic performance, others think the contrary since the devices are a great tool for studying purposes. I believe phones should be allowed during the school day if used as another learning tool, such as computers and books.
