How Smartphones Affect Test Scores
It's kind of hard to concentrate on work, when your phone's just sitting a few inches away, right? Seems like kids get distracted too, and it's affecting their test scores.
The London School of Economics recently did a study that found that schools in England who had a phone ban, their students raised their test scores by 6%, and those kids who were "academic underachievers" raised their scores by 14%!!!
Crazy. They suggest that schools/parents limit their kid's phone use during school hours.
Would you support a phone ban here in the Treasure Valley?
