Should schools ban cell phones?
Manage episode 425438200 series 3303135
School is out for the summer, and when students of two Seattle schools return in the fall, there will be some changes. Cell phones will be banned at Robert Eagle Staff Elementary and Hamilton International Middle School.
Students will check their cell phone into a small lockable pouch when they arrive at school. Districts across the state and country have taken similar actions. Florida and Indiana have passed laws requiring districts to create policies that restrict phone usage during the school day
This all comes amid a growing body of research on the impacts that smartphones have on teen learning and mental health.
Guests:
- Lucía Magis-Weinberg, assistant professor at the University of Washington School of Psychology
- Kris Hagal, executive director of digital learning at Peninsula School District
