'How can we expect kids to learn and teachers to teach when there are concerts, movies, parties, cyberbullies, shopping malls, and drug dealers in their pockets?' said the leader of a letter to the U.S. education secretary.
Dozens of parents, child advocates, and researchers this week called on U.S. Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona to issue an official advisory 'urging U.S. K-12 schools to adopt phone-free policies' to 'promote student achievement, foster educational excellence, and ensure an equitable experience for all.
A theater teacher in Colorado told The Denver Post that her students are 'more hesitant to take risks in class because they fear that they will be recorded, the video will be posted online, and then they will be judged.' The journalism referenced in the letter also captures positive responses to well-implemented policies, such as 'phone hotels' where kids stash their devices during instruction.
