New Study: How does Screen Time Affect Grades?
What effects can phone screen time have on students? At first glance, it may seem harmless but when we decided to take a closer look, we found a strong correlation between too much phone time and lower grades.
With 95% of Americans owning a cell phone of some kind and actually 77% of them owning a smartphone (according to pewinternet ), the topic of phone time and its potential effects comes into question.
