      No, but that’s not the point. Mobile phones and apps are specifically engineered to draw your attention as much as possible. Children are especially vulnerable to distractions, and so to me it makes sense to serverely limit their usage in the classroom.

      Not everything has to be as black and white as “stop”. A step in the right direction is a good one.
