This document discusses the disadvantages of allowing handphones in schools. It notes that while there are advantages to handphones, their use in schools can lead students to call outsiders for answers, surf the internet to find answers instead of focusing in class, and play games or surf websites instead of paying attention. This can cause students to not focus in class, flunk exams, and widen gaps between students from different economic backgrounds. Handphone use in schools can also enable students to play truant from hostels, set up dates, and increase theft and quarrels at schools. However, the document acknowledges there are also advantages to handphones.
