Cell Phones these days

Should cell phone be banned in Schools

Honestly, to me, it makes a lot of sense for student not to be able to use their cell phones during school hours. Cell phones should be banned from  school because they distract students and allow them to cheat in school.

I'm a student at ST Bernadette’s school and I am a person that goes online too, but there's a certain place where you can use them and that's not in class (talking about phones). if you need to call your "mom" (or so the excuse goes) use the office phone. if you need to talk to someone, talk to there face not through text or email or at least talk to them voice to voice. Use your time not the teachers time I mean she takes time out of her schedule to teach you. so why can’t you take time out of your day to text or call someone, it’s not that hard to wait until you get home to text your friends. Say to yourself did my grandma do that, what about my mum did she, well guess what they didn't have electronics those days I mean the spent their time working using pen and paper and when they get home the study but these days a lot of electronics have arrived and more people including teens and children have them. Cell phones should not be allowed in schools because if the students get bored, they might use them to play games or do other activities that distract their attention from learning. In case of family emergency, the teachers have a cell phone and the parents could call them.

EDUCATION

If we saw the past of our parents or our grandfather or grandmother we found that  they have a great memory along with calculation and knowledge but today if we get a 4 numbers digit calculation we are used to take the calculator or mobile phone and the other thing. Today if we get any number of someone we don't memorize it we feed it into the mobile phones even we feed also the birthday of our friends and free from everything. if the mobile phone lost we think everything is lost. Well that is not our fault it is your fault for feeding things into your mobile phones but not in your head! So next time you feed it into your mobile phone feed it into your head first.

AN EXPERT’S VIEW OF POINT

So I went on an website and these experts were questioned this question about why phones should be banned in schools and Daniell einstein a psychologist said “First, mobile phones are too easily used at the expense of face-to-face communication. Teenagers can message, avoiding a more challenging conversation. Second, smartphone apps and messages prompt dopamine release, creating addiction. Third, the mere presence of one’s phone consumes attention even when it's not being checked. It's been shown we have reduced working memory capacity and fluid intelligence when our phone is upside down, silent on our desk compared to when it is in another room. Finally, the introduction of smartphones has led to a decline in people’s ability to cope with uncertainty. Research shows being uncomfortable with uncertainty is associated with students feeling distracted and tense during NAPLAN and other tests. The more uncomfortable young people are with uncertainty, the higher the number of co-occurring psychological problems they report experiencing. Smartphone use is associated with the current epidemic of anxiety and depression”

CYBERBULLYING

These days cyberbullying has started all because we have devices, devices such as phones, these phones should be banned from school because it has not only cause cheating but also caused cyberbullying. This has happened a lot in school times. I don’t like cyberbullying and if someone hurts my friends feelings by teasing them and calling them names that will make me very annoyed so I will interview someone about how they felt when they got were bullied online.  Here is what he said” I felt sad and disappointed because it isn’t only wrong but has a big affect of people, some people get so depressed they turn away from the right and think negatively and do things they regret, I felt depressed and then I began hurting myself, I regret doing all those things and I feel that phones should be banned.” This is the reason why cell phones are bad for us especially in school.

To Conclude my Statement, I surely believe that  Cell phones should be banned because it distracts students from education and they use it for cheating. Not only that but also makes a lot of problems such as cyber bullying. So that is the reason why cell phones should be banned. Thank you very much and I hope you have a great day.
