Big picture, the bans work to dramatically reduce phone usage during the school day. But data regarding improvements in discipline, student well being, and academic achievement is either lagging, or minimal at this point. But, some of the data shows us what we’d expect -- kids initially push back against the bans, but then settle in and do better over time. So, what does it all mean for kids and schools? Manuel and Jeff discuss! MAXIMUM WOKENESS ALERT -- get your All of the Above swag, including your own “Teach the Truth” shirt!
