Ep. 93: Digital Detox – Schools Without Cell Phones

  • Summary

  • Smartphones have become a collective distraction in the classroom. One 2024 Pew Research survey of public-school teachers says 33% of middle school teachers and a whopping 72% of high school teachers see cell phone use in the classroom as a major problem: a disruptor to the educational process.

    Here to discuss the benefits of public school cell phone bans are Jay Bastianelli, Principal of HB du Pont Middle School in Hockessin, Delaware, part of the Red Clay Consolidated School District, and Nemours pediatric psychologist Dr. Meghan Walls. Dr. Walls provides insights on the topic from a professional and personal perspective.

    GUESTS:
    Jay Bastianelli, Principal, HB du Pont Middle School. Hockessin, DE
    Meghan Walls, PhD, Pediatric Psychologist and Director of External Affairs, Nemours Children's Health
