Introduction
Cell phone has become a part of our every day lives, but that doesn't mean you
shouldn't put down your phone every once and a while. Adolescent cell (mobile) phone
ownership has become ubiquitous over the last few years. There are several reasons that
young people are more vulnerable than adults to environmental stressors [1], so concern
has grown internationally over their increasing levels of exposure to this radiation due to
possible adverse health effects. Using the Short Message Service (texting) is
adolescents’ preferred form of use [2]. Inevitably this has meant that a majority of students
take a cellphone to school, often into class, and use it there. However, there is very little
research on what regulatory approaches schools take towards cellphones being kept or
used by students during school, students’ responses to those rules, or health implications
The impact that cell phones have made on high school and college students has
been both positive and negative. For example, the advancements of cell phones and
tablets have played a major role in the utilization of education in the classroom. In the
1990s, cell phones and tablets did not exist in the classroom, students had to rely solely
on computers that were usually placed in a computer lab, or in the library. This can be
considered a setback to the teacher and to the student because it requires students to
Furthermore, students had to rely on reading material out of the library which
slowed down the research process for writing papers and/or thesis’. Now, here we are in
the twenty-first century and classrooms are filled with a large variety of laptops, cell
phones and tablets. With the availability to the internet being near limitless, but the
technology can be very distracting to the students. The student’s distraction, is thus
distracting to the teachers or professors and to the student’s fellow classmates. Over the
last 50 years modern advancements in technology have played a crucial role in the
The effect of cell phones on college and high school students has been primarily
negative. Over the last 50 years modern advancements in technology have played a
crucial role in the development of education in both negative and positive aspects. The
two supporting sources have provided proof to how cell phones make available some
positive advantages to the student’s access to internet and therefore also access to faster
research opportunities. The third opposing source provided information to how useful cell
phones can be to students learning and the increase in the amount of work that gets done
when students are allowed to use their phones, but there are always students that do not
want to follow the teacher’s rules, and therefore mess it up for all of the other students.
Titled 2010 Young Asians Survey, the study examined the habits of youth across
Asia. Respondents ranged from 8 to 24 years old across 11 markets including the
Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Indonesia, Korea, Malaysia, China, Hong Kong, India,
phones to play games, listen to music, watch videos and surf the Internet.
This forecast shows the number of smartphone users in the Philippines from 2015
to 2016 with forecasts for 2017 to 2022. In 2017, the number of smartphone users in the
Philippines is estimated to reach 30.4 million. This would mean that around 32 percent of
the population in the Philippines would use a smartphone. This number is expected to
