Smartphones can be a major part of a young person’s daily life. 95% of teenagers in the US have regular access to a smartphone and the average teenager receives almost 200 cell phone notifications a day.
Constant smartphone use may have significant detrimental effects on the health of young, developing brains including harming attention span, contributing to sleep deprivation, worsened academic performance, and a variety of mental health issues.
Because of the impacts of smartphones on student health and wellbeing, the state of Ohio recently passed a law that requires schools to adopt policies around cell phones that limit their negative effects in the classroom. This resource briefly outlines the new law, and its purpose.
