In an effort to raise awareness among students about the responsible use of technology, our institution conducted a 1-day seminar focused on the safe use of mobile phones, especially among young students.
The seminar aimed to enlighten students on the benefits and potential harms of mobile usage, emphasizing that while smartphones are powerful tools for research and learning, excessive use for entertainment or social media can negatively affect academic performance and mental well-being.
Key points discussed during the seminar included:
- Mobile phones as tools for accessing educational resources, online classes, and research materials.
- The dangers of disturbed sleep cycles and lack of focus caused by late-night screen time.
- Understanding how addiction to mobile games or social apps can lead to poor time management and reduced study hours.
- Tips to maintain digital discipline and use technology in a balanced, healthy way.
