SOUTH KOREA PHONE BAN
South Korea will ban mobile phones and other electronic devices in classrooms, a move the government says will help students stay focused. Students in South Korea will no longer be allowed to use these devices in schools. It's a big deal because research shows South Korea is one of the world's most digitally connected countries. Around 98 per cent of the population are active online and own a smartphone. The government says too many kids are addicted, which is why next year South Korea will join countries like Italy, the Netherlands, and China in banning phones in schools. Here in Australia, phones are banned in public schools, and governments say there have been some big improvements since the change. In South Australia, the government says behaviour issues in schools have decreased by 60 per cent, and reports on issues related to social media have dropped by 80 per cent. Some experts say there's not enough evidence to prove that phone bans improve mental health or result in less bullying. They also say there needs to be more education on healthy phone use instead of just taking them away. South Korea hopes the ban will encourage kids to spend more time learning in the real world rather than on social media.
