My CALC students have carried out a survey in class about their use of MOBILE PHONES. It was aimed at detecting whether they overuse their mobiles or even if some of them can be regarded as addicts!!
After asking each other the survey questions, the conclusions brought together the points made by most students and were very clear:
All students in class have a smartphone which is relatively new. Most of them are not even one year old and were bought even when the old one still worked!! which makes it clear what everyday life would like for my students if they couldn't use their mobiles for a week. I think most of them would't survive!! They don't even go out and leave their phones at home... intentionally!! Most of my students use their mobiles for social networks or apps and check their phones as much as they can, even if they don't ring or vibrate!!
These results are a major sign of the mobile phone dependence that my students have and should serve them as a warning of the harm phones can cause in their lives.
So, next time you go out, why don´t you leave your mobile behind?
