230731 联合国报告再呼吁:禁止在校内用手机
▍原文
The United Nations has warned of the risks of smartphones in schools, stating "only technology that supports learning" is merited in schools.
Mobile devices can cause distraction, risk pupil privacy and lead to cyber-bullying, says Unesco, the UN's education, science and culture agency.
But less than one-in-four countries have laws or policies banning phones in schools, the report found.
