I can't think of a teacher who will agree with this studies' findings. ttps://www.theguardian.com/politics/2026/may/05/mobile-phone-ban-schools-us-study Strict bans on mobile phones in schools have “close to zero” impact on student learning and show no evidence of improvements in attendance or online bullying, a study has found. Researchers at US universities including Stanford and Duke looked at nearly 1,800 US schools where students’ phones were kept in locked pouches and found little or no differences in outcomes compared with similar schools without strict bans. submitted by /u/Grrarrgghh [link] [comments]
