I believe for some students they are addicted to their phones as it varies from student to student. Phones provide instant gratification and keep bringing us back whether it's through snapchat streaks, notifications, emails, etc. Although it's nice to constantly know what's going on in the world and have instant contact, phones can also have a negative side. Phones addiction in teens can cause teens to become less grounded, forget about real world consequences, and forget about what their priorities in life should be. I think whether students are addicted to their phones really depends on whether they know how to manage their phone usage and staying grounded. I believe some students get caught up in the idea of being an online star and become addicted.

Kia Ora Molly,
ReplyDeleteThis is a very nice paragraph and does make many interesting points. I agree that it varies from student to student, and that phones provide instant gratification. You have done a very nice job. Maybe next time you could go deeper into the fact that students are raised on these devices and sometimes aren't educated on how to control themselves. Otherwise, excellent job!
Ka Rawe!
