Should primary school students use mobile phones?

The author believes that mobile phones have become a necessity in our lives, and students can often be seen using mobile phones on campus; Among middle school students, "Call me on my cell phone if you have anything" has become a mantra. More and more teachers and parents are worried about the frequent ringing of mobile phone rings, unhealthy spam messages and the psychological comparison caused by them. The author does not advocate middle school students to bring mobile phones for the following reasons:

First of all, it is a reflection of social progress that middle school students bring mobile phones. However, as a younger middle school student, the range of activities is relatively narrow and the self-control ability is not strong. Some students play games and send short messages in class, which easily affects the class order and their study. Middle school students are in a rebellious period of youth. The use of mobile phones not only strengthens the communication between classmates, but also increases the chances of puppy love.

Secondly, primary and secondary school students' self-protection ability is not strong. Although the mobile phone is not a very expensive item, it is easy to attract the attention of criminals when it is carried on a child of eleven or twelve. In particular, some immature children deliberately expose their wealth and are easily blackmailed by criminals.

Mobile phones generally store some home addresses or parents' phone numbers, which is good for children, but it is also easy to be used by criminals.

In addition, from the health point of view, using mobile phones is not good for teenagers' health. Some experts say that because teenagers' ears and skulls are smaller and thinner than adults, children's brains absorb 50% more radiation when using mobile phones than adults. Cell phone radiation can damage brain nerves, leading to headaches, memory loss and sleep disorders. Therefore, for the sake of health, teenagers should try to reduce the use of mobile phones.

Finally, for middle school students who have no financial ability, mobile phones are a kind of high consumption, which will trigger students' comparison psychology and affect the healthy development of body and mind. Actually, I'm not saying that children are forbidden to bring mobile phones. Instead, I hope that teachers and parents can guide students, so that students have a sense of self-discipline and use mobile phones with a healthy and civilized attitude.

Now a more fashionable sentence on campus is: Call me if you have anything. Especially for students with good family conditions, some have three or four mobile phones, which is becoming more and more fashionable. My position on this is very firm. There are three main reasons why middle school students should not bring mobile phones: first, chatting by SMS will delay their studies; Second, bad information pollutes the mind; Third, encourage extravagance and waste and blind comparison.

First, let's take a look at SMS chat. Why did parents give us cell phones? The purpose is nothing more than to facilitate our contact with home, but most students use it to chat, especially some students use it to cheat in exams.

Secondly, I am here to shout to the students: bad information should be strictly guarded against. This is a very serious problem. Some students forwarded those yellow jokes and some explicit words to each other, which made people blush and heartbeat. How can it not affect the physical and mental growth of teenagers? Especially middle school students are curious and eager to learn. Some people often subscribe to content such as "passionate men and women" online. Just enter their mobile phone number and password on the web page and choose to subscribe. After 24 hours, their mobile phones will receive two short messages about gender content every week. The transfer of energy leads to a sharp decline in the academic performance of some students.

Finally, for middle school students who have no independent financial ability, using mobile phones is definitely a high consumption, and it is a valuable item, so it is easy to lose it when they go to physical education class or engage in other activities, and buying a new one will increase the burden on parents. Besides, some people are very competitive. When they see that others have new mobile phones, they will feel unbalanced and want to buy a better one. In the long run, it will become more and more difficult to be extravagant and compare with others.

The following are some surveys about "mobile phones": (from Sanjiang Metropolis Daily)

Survey (1): Mobile phones have become the new favorite of middle school students.

Walking into today's middle school campus, we will find that many middle school students have their own mobile phones. In a sense, mobile phones have become an extremely important part of their lives.

Nana from a middle school did well in the final exam. She took the opportunity to beg her mother several times to buy a mobile phone as a New Year gift. Mom and dad agreed after discussion. Before the Spring Festival, my mother bought her a mobile phone specially, and gave her a wish. Nana is now a senior one student. She said that it is common for students to have mobile phones at school. According to the reporter's investigation in Changsha mobile phone market, middle school students are gradually becoming a relatively stable customer group in the mobile phone market.

In order to verify this statement, the reporter distributed 500 questionnaires in two middle schools in Changsha, and conducted a sample survey on the use of mobile phones by middle school students. The results show that there are 258 students with mobile phones, accounting for 5 1.7% of the total number of the survey, among which high school students are the main ones. In economically developed areas such as Beijing and Shanghai, its proportion has reached an alarming level. Even some foreign teachers from developed countries were surprised.

The number of middle school students with mobile phones is increasing day by day, and the grade of mobile phones is also rising. From the cheapest to the most expensive, all kinds of brands and styles of mobile phones can find their own fans on campus. Several teachers in a middle school in Changsha joked that our teacher's mobile phone is much worse than the students'.

Investigation (2): Deducing Campus Fashion between Fingers

From the initial concealment to the present generosity, mobile phones have become a new popular color in middle school campuses.

A questionnaire survey conducted in some middle schools in Changsha shows that 90% of students with mobile phones will contact their families, 38% will chat with their classmates, 65% will send and receive text messages, and 19% will play games.

Main purpose 1: calling campus popularity index 7

Almost every student who has a mobile phone thinks that it really brings convenience to contact with his family. Parents can keep track of their children's whereabouts in time and avoid some worries and misunderstandings caused by lack of communication. In addition, due to the use of mobile phones, communication between students has become more frequent.

Main purpose 2: send and receive short messages. Campus popularity index 8

"Congratulations, you have been admitted to Harley Oil Stupid University in America ..." This is a short message we saw on a middle school student's mobile phone. She said that there are many similar messages in her mobile phone, all of which are jokes sent by classmates to each other. Of all the functions of mobile phones, sending and receiving short messages is the most frequently used.

Main uses: playing video games, campus popularity index 4.

Although the built-in game content of mobile phone is far less abundant than that of online games, the game function of mobile phone is very popular among some middle school students because it is not limited by location and does not need to pay.

Many education experts believe that the popularity of mobile phones comes from two factors: society and students themselves. The general decline in the price of mobile phones has enabled more and more families to buy them. In addition, mobile phones can also meet the psychological needs of some students. Xiao, a graduate tutor in the Department of Sociology of Hunan Normal University, believes that middle school students use mobile phones. First of all, they find it interesting and can send jokes and interesting news to each other. The second is to satisfy your vanity.

Investigation (3): How to distinguish the good from the bad?

The New Year movie "Mobile Phone" makes people realize that mobile phone, as a modern communication tool, will also bring us some confusion and trouble. For middle school students, the contradiction between the advantages and disadvantages brought by using mobile phones is more prominent.

Facing the reporter's camera, almost all middle school students will say one of the biggest advantages of using mobile phones: it is convenient to contact their families. This is also the biggest reason why parents buy mobile phones for their children. However, the convenience brought by mobile phones to children has greatly exceeded the original imagination of parents. Many times, children expand their mobile phone contacts to more classmates and friends.

Modern technology has given mobile phones more functions. Many teachers tell us that students with mobile phones are keen on chatting, texting and playing video games, and they often lack restraint when using mobile phones.

In addition, the trend of comparison triggered by mobile phones has also begun to prevail on campus. Every spare time or after school, some students will get together to "learn" the styles and functions of mobile phones. There are more and more mobile phones on campus, and the grades are getting higher and higher. For those students who don't have mobile phones, it is easy to cause psychological imbalance. Under the influence of the wind of comparison, some students begin to chase blindly, which is a dilemma for parents. According to a sample survey in three schools in Zibo, Shandong Province, all the money for students to buy mobile phones comes from their parents. In addition, parents need to pay telephone bills ranging from tens to hundreds of yuan every month. After a year, parents spend at least 500 yuan on their children's mobile phones. For families with poor economic conditions, buying a mobile phone for their children is equivalent to adding a new burden to parents. If the trend of mobile phone comparison continues to spread on campus, I'm afraid more parents will have to face such problems.

Survey (4): Challenging school management

With the increasing popularity of mobile phones, we have to pay attention to a problem. If mobile phones are left unchecked in middle school campuses, many teenagers will soon get lost in the tide of the information age.

Many teachers report that using mobile phones will hinder the order of education and teaching in schools. For example, the sudden ringing of the mobile phone in class will bring unpleasant emotions to the whole classroom. In addition, there are signs of cheating in exams with mobile phones on campus. According to a teacher from Changsha Changjun Middle School, cheating with mobile phones is an open secret, and a message can be sent to several students, indicating that cheating is very extensive.

It is understood that some schools severely "prohibit students from bringing mobile phones into campus" and try to completely solve the problems caused by mobile phones, but the effect is not satisfactory. Many students think that there is no good reason for the school to prohibit them from carrying mobile phones.

On the one hand, it is an irresistible trend of the times, and on the other hand, it is all kinds of embarrassment brought by mobile phones. Such a sharp contradiction is testing the wisdom and determination of the education department.

This confusion and challenge does not only appear in China. In some developed countries, school administrators encountered this problem earlier than we did, and the adverse effects brought by mobile phones were more prominent, which led to the crime of middle school students. Middle school students with mobile phones also became the targets of some criminals to cheat and rob. Some middle schools in Japan sent letters to parents appealing that middle school students should not own mobile phones in principle, and hoped that parents would cancel the contract with the telephone company immediately.

Shanghai Jianping Middle School is the first school in China to take management measures against students' use of mobile phones. On June 5438+February 1, 2003, high school attached to hunan normal university promoted the "Campus Civilization Agreement", encouraging students not to bring their mobile phones into school, and installed 60 magnetic card phones on campus to facilitate students to contact their families. Changsha No.1 Middle School is also preparing to further improve the relevant regulations on students' use of mobile phones in the last semester this year, and will study the use of mobile phones as a moral education topic in the information age.

With the gradual deepening of the investigation, we are more and more aware that the controversy surrounding the mobile phone in the middle school campus has not only stayed in the mobile phone itself, but also involved the problem of how the educational concepts and means adapt to the development of the times, because modern schools are no longer closed and isolated, but a social component in the era of open information. Educators, parents and society should weigh the pros and cons from the perspective of whether they can promote the healthy growth of teenagers, and then choose corresponding measures.

Ningbo: Students are forbidden to bring mobile phones, and offenders will be penalized.

Before September this year, there were 10 high school students in Ningbo Hua Mao Foreign Language School, 7 of whom had mobile phones, but now none of them can use mobile phones in public. According to the regulations of the school, no student is allowed to bring mobile phones into the school. Once found, he will be detained and handed over to his parents. In addition, 5 points will be deducted for class competition and 5 points will be deducted for personal conduct assessment. Those who refuse to mend their ways after repeated education shall be given administrative warning.

Before the implementation of this regulation, the school expected that some students would not accept it, so it issued a "letter to parents" to let each parent write down his feedback on this regulation, and no parent raised any objection to this regulation.

After the implementation of this regulation, more than 50 students were punished. At present, nearly 25% students are "unruly" and secretly use their mobile phones: they don't use them in public, but turn them on when they return to the dormitory. In just 1 month, the student's mobile phone ownership rate has dropped by 50%, and the school is very satisfied with this result.

USA: Campus Mobile Phone Legislation

About 10 years ago, school districts in various States in the United States made rules (some of which were made by state legislatures or local governments) to completely prohibit students from using pagers and mobile phones. There are three main reasons: 1. Pagers and mobile phones are helpful to drug trafficking on campus; 2. Pagers and mobile phones contribute to the development of campus underworld or underground organizations; Pagers and mobile phones will cause great interference to school teaching.

A consulting organization named "National Campus Security Service" in the United States claims that although using mobile phones can provide a lot of convenience for students, they have seriously interfered with normal teaching, and students frequently use mobile phones to play pranks, causing panic. In addition, if there are really terrorist activities in the school, all students with mobile phones will make a phone call together, which is likely to cause paralysis of the mobile phone system, and the use of mobile phones is also in danger of detonating bombs.

In the United States, people strongly oppose the use of mobile phones on campus. At present, most schools in the United States do not allow students to use mobile phones. In Georgia, students are forbidden to use mobile phones before school ends at 3 pm. Once a student violates the regulations, the teacher can confiscate the mobile phone and deal with the relevant personnel in violation of discipline.

Finland: It is forbidden to sell mobile phones to teenagers.

The Finnish market court recently decided to prohibit Finnish wireless communication companies from directly selling mobile communication services such as mobile Internet access to teenagers. If you violate this ban, you will be fined 654.38 million euros.

Since last autumn, in order to increase users, Finnish telecom operator Wireless Communication Company has directly promoted mobile communication services to teenagers by mail, and sent network access contracts and network cards. Because underage children can't afford it, their mobile phone bills are usually paid by their parents. Many parents have reported this situation to the Finnish Consumption Authority. The Consumer Affairs Commissioner immediately stepped forward to stop this improper practice of telecom operators and prohibit all telecom operators from selling mobile communication services directly to minors.

Finland attaches great importance to protecting consumers' rights and interests. The Commissioner for Consumer Affairs is the head of the Finnish Consumer Administration, who is responsible for supervising the implementation of laws and regulations formulated to protect consumers and plays an important role in regulating and purifying the market.

Personal opinion:

Parents: mobile phone "remote control" children

Parents who advocate buying mobile phones for their children aim to find them at any time; Once the child is in danger, he can use his mobile phone for help in time.

When her son was in the fifth grade of primary school, Ms. Wang bought her son a mobile phone. Now that the children are in the first grade, the students in their class generally have mobile phones. Ms. Wang said that children are never allowed to take them when they go to school. They only take them when they make up classes on weekends or holidays. They are mainly used to contact how to pick up and drop off children.

Ms. Zhang, who works in the education department, believes that in today's era when the information industry is advancing by leaps and bounds, it is inconvenient for children to cross several streets in order to return calls, and it is also prone to traffic accidents. If family conditions permit, children can be equipped with mobile phones without affecting their studies.

Children have mobile phones, but is the use of mobile phones really as parents wish?

Child: Contact classmates by mobile phone.

Most parents report that their children talk less about their studies on their mobile phones, and communicate with their classmates or send text messages on their mobile phones.

At noon yesterday, the reporter heard at the entrance of a junior high school in Tiedong that seven or eight middle school students in school uniforms were discussing how to celebrate their classmates' birthdays on weekends. A boy, afraid of temporary changes, took out his mobile phone from his schoolbag and said, "Call me then, lest you can't find me." Another boy also said, "Yes, you can call my mobile phone instead of our home phone, so my mother will know more."

On the contrary, children are not interested in their parents' phone calls. A female student in Grade Two told reporters that her parents always called her, which made her feel very troublesome. After Mr. Lin bought his son a mobile phone, he found that his son's mobile phone was "turned off" as soon as he had something to find him. Ask the reason, either the power is out or I forgot to turn it on. "There are a hundred reasons waiting for you anyway," Mr. Lin said helplessly.

School: You'd better not bring your cell phone in.

Through investigation, it is found that most middle schools in our city have made written and oral requirements, and it is not recommended that middle school students bring their mobile phones into school.

The teacher of Senior Three Road in a school said that although students are not allowed to bring their mobile phones, she often hears ringtones or text messages in class. Once she finds out, she will immediately confiscate the student's mobile phone and let his parents come to school to get it back. Judging from the confiscated mobile phones, most students use mobile phones to send and receive short messages, discuss where to go after class, or pass on "dirty jokes", which is much more "advanced" than passing notes between students in the past. Teacher Lu told reporters that students' addiction to text messages will have an impact on their academic performance.
