The Minister of Education, Daniel David, does not support the idea of banning the use of mobile phones in educational units, explaining that the rules that involve prohibitions generate the recurrence of prohibited things, but at an even higher intensity. Daniel David wants, on the other hand, an “educational control” of the use of these gadgets in the educational units.

Daniel David was asked on a television show on Sunday, if he supports the ban on mobile phones in schools. “No,” the minister replied.
“I have always had a problem, except for the obvious antisocial issues, I am against the prohibition of various things, because I, as a psychologist, I know that if you forbid them, reappear, often with greater intensity, in gray areas that you do not control. They are to control the educational phones in school. I mean, why should I ban them?“, Arg what Daniel David argued, writes News.ro.
The minister supports, on the other hand, other methods regarding the control of the use of these gadgets in the educational units.
“You can have various rules, I don’t know, you have a cabinet in the classroom, when you entered the classroom, we all leave our phones here. We have a break, good, these 10 minutes, you can take your phone, talk to your father if It’s a problem or other thingswe enter the class, you leave it there again. It does not mean that it should be done, I say that we must use these devices. The technology itself is not good or bad, it becomes good or bad depending on how you use it. Let’s use it well! ”he adds.
