Mainly because of the radio frequency (RF) energy levels emitted when the phone is held close to the ear. The iPhone actually warns customers of the use of cell phones and recommends using a "hands-free option, such as the built-in speaker phone, headphones, or other similar accessories" to reduce the exposure to harmful RF energy.


Therefore, limiting the use of technology devices such as cell phones, by having a more balanced approach will be extremely beneficial to our students; to everyone in fact.
