Some people believe that children should be banned from using their phones during the school day. Others believe that children should be allowed to use their phones. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

As a high

school

teacher, I have spotted my

students

using their

phones

on campus countless times. To many of my fellow teachers even the

school

’s authority,

this

can be a negative development as it may pose a threat to the

’s security.

However

, the benefit of

phone

use is undeniable. We all see how

phones

have affected our life ever since their advent, especially, how it has changed our habit of taking in information. Spontaneously are we notified about almost everything in the world within a ‘ting’ of our pocket-

.

This

is universally considered a serious distraction. Imagine the same thing happens to schoolgoers, whose attention span is shorter than a goldfish.

For instance

, putting aside how engaged my lecture is, I more than usual catch some of my teenage

students

using

phones

during class, even when important points of the lesson are being summarized. I wonder how much can those young minds learn when they are being bothered with TikTok videos and Instagram reels.

Moreover

, allowing

phones

in schools means that

students

are able to take photos and record videos to post directly to the internet. Everyone knows that media is a two-sided knife and a photo or a video does not tell the whole story, which may falsely direct media attention and encourages unwelcomed behaviours within the

campus.

However

, mobile

phones

are really useful in keeping connections between parents and their children these days. It is not that

school

is no longer a sanctuary where parent-

mutual trust is absolute, but it is that parents are too busy to pick up their children in time or that the trip from home to

school

is now too dangerous for a youngster to go alone that the parents, who are working, want to keep track of their children with

calls. In another aspect, with the introduction of student-centred teaching methods, modern smartphones, as a mean of an information search engine,

shows how much it benefits research work at

access to a resourceful platform for information searching immediately.

This

somehow challenges the idea of banning campus

use. In conclusion, as a teacher, I will not deny the advantages of

students

having

phones

at

However

,

school

private

phone

provide

such
