Answers
This is Not The Letter , But You Can Use This Point While Writing Your Letter
1. Lack of concentration
According to report published in the Daily Mail, a new study claims that
Heavy internet and mobile phone users are prone to lack of concentration and forget things easily
This also affects their awareness and eventually lead to passive mind
Moreover, this also leads to weak focus and attention
2. Stress
Parents want to give all the facilities to their children at a tender age so as to help them carve a perfect career path. They purchase the most expensive and latest smartphone for their children for this, which in itself is the origin of all the problems apparently.
Students generally have peer pressure to maintain their image. Even if they do not want to buy an expensive mobile phone, they will do it for their friend circle
Children get stressed trying to maintain a proper communication level with parents, teachers and friends on phone
3. Low grades
Of course, use of technology has direct implication on education, be it positive or negative. If a teacher is using technology in the classroom, it will benefit a student. However, if a student chatting for long hours on phone, it will definitely leave a negative impact on him/her.
According to a report published in the Guardian, a research done by Louis-Philippe Beland and Richard Murphy, published by the Centre for Economic Performance at the London School of Economics, says: "Ill Communication: The Impact of Mobile Phones on Student Performance" found that after schools banned mobile phones, the test scores of students aged 16 improved by 6.4%. The economists reckon that this is the "equivalent of adding five days to the school year".
Why are mobile phones affecting kids negatively?
Despite knowing about education-related apps, kids spend most of their time doing following activities:
Listening music frequently
Playing mobile games
Chatting and calling friends
Following social media
In short, excessive use of mobile phones is becoming a distraction for students and is wasting their time. They are delved into the virtual world to an extent that they forget all other important things
4. Lack of vision
Anxiety, stress and depression are some of the problems faced by students due to 24-hour connection with friends and other people. According to a study, students fail to set goals for themselves due a confused state of mind.
What leads to a confused state of mind? Teenagers get deep into a delirious state of mind once they start keeping their phone next to them at all times.
They do not sleep
They constantly check their phone
Despite sleeping, they are not stress free
5. Cyber bullying
According to recent survey by Microsoft Corporation, India ranks third on the highest rate of cyber bullying, after China and Singapore. As many as 7,600 children between the age group of 8-17 years are the victim of cyber bullying.
"What is seen as cyber bullying can vary between different cultures, and even among different individuals. In addition, cyber bullying, as a term, is not recognised worldwide. To address this, the study explored the issue by asking children about negative experiences they've had online - from their point of view (being called mean names, being teased, etc.). While such experiences may not be viewed as bullying by all who experience it, these behaviors may be considered by some as having potentially adverse effects," noted the report.
Impacts of cyber bullying:
Rising student suicides
Increase of aggression in students
Loss of self confidence
Depression
Increase in student drug intake
