2.Authorities can provide structures to manage phone use for youths.

3.But calibrated device usage has to be something that an individual strives for because they know what are the impacts of heavy device use on their lives.

What is one key takeaway from this lesson for you?

What are some changes you are willing to make to help yourself or your family?

What are some steps you can take to reduce your reliance and usage on devices?

1.When devices are used by youths here, there, everywhere, youths will face many problems. These problems are faced by youths globally. (Civic Consciousness)

2.These include attention fragmentation, reduced ability to focus and learn, poorer mental health, weaker social relationships, and addictive behaviours.

3.The responsibility of keeping youths from these dangers lie on individuals, families, communities, and institutions that have power over them. (Situation Analysis)

4. As an individual, you have the power to do something about your own device use. (Self Control)

One key takeaway is that it is hard to memorise if there are distractions.

Stop using my phone so much so I can bond with them more.

I will put it out of sight and study instead.

1. That we should not make our devices as our priority.

2. Put phones away during dinner, lunch or watching movies(family time) with our families

3. Find a new hobby to focus on instead of our phones.

I learnt that phones are a major distraction in our lives.

I’m willing to keep my phone in the locker during school hours.

Set screen time on my devices

Our distractions are our digital devices

As students,we agree to the government’s decision

Individuals should regulate their own device usage.Responsibility belongs to the individual

We have realised that phone is a huge distraction in our lives. We should not make it a habit to use our phone everytime. We should be more disciplined and substitute our phone time with new hobbies.
