00:00 The Senate is now studying the prohibition of gadgets during class.
00:05 Students are being locked up here so the grades are falling.
00:11 That's what Daniel Badalastos was surprised about.
00:13 Dahlia's grandmother got a headache when she heard that because she has a cellphone,
00:21 one of her grandchildren's grades are falling.
00:25 She's not doing her assignments because she has a cellphone. That's why her mother has a headache.
00:31 Joy is one of Dahlia's grandchildren but she's not the one who fell.
00:36 She believes that cellphones are a big thing, especially asynchronous classes or distance learning.
00:43 It also helps with research and other activities.
00:47 Cellphones help with connecting with others. It helps with everyday life.
00:54 Cellphones also help during emergencies.
00:57 But according to Senator Sherwin Gatchalian,
01:00 it also has a negative effect on children.
01:03 That's why the Senator has asked...
01:05 I'm studying to ban the use of cellphones in classrooms and school hours.
01:16 They can just take it out when they're home.
01:19 Many of our children are already using cellphones even in classrooms.
01:25 They should be reading but they're watching YouTube or TikTok.
01:29 For some teachers, cellphones have a positive and a negative effect.
01:33 So some are saying...
01:35 It's better to use a cellphone.
01:37 The child will bring it.
01:39 Just set it aside in a safe room.
01:45 Once the child calls, they'll use it.
01:47 But once they're in class, the child shouldn't bring their cellphone.
01:51 Senator Bato de la Rosa thinks that we should first put a stop to it.
01:55 Are there more students who are getting mad because of the use of cellphones,
02:05 games, social media, or whatever else?
02:09 Or are there more people who are getting better?
02:13 PTV News tried to get the DEPEDD's report but they still haven't been able to get it.
02:19 They said that it's better to use a cellphone.
