Yes, I agree with these policies, even now 8 years later, 2016, the use of internet on schools needs high vigilence from tutors and assistents in the classroom. Besides, the amount of hours, for children, being exposed to WiFi including the presence of their mobile phones, should be guarded as well. Nowadays, many sources of info are surfacing, showing evidence of the slow process of cooking of our bodies, which isn't obvious immediately but shows signs of it later. Children are more vulnerable to this effect on their bodies, particularly their brain. For the skull is thinner and the amount of fluid in the brain is larger, hence the increase of this effect. Parents are advised to put the mob. phone of their kids on flight mode, allowing them to play their virtual games without being exposed to radiation. Concentration problems are one of the significant symptoms of WiFi exposure, although the nature of surfing the web is a cause for that problem as well, offering distractions of all sorts and in all directions. After all it's a web. Depending on children's own sense of responsibility and that or their parents, tutors and teachers, this web can turn into a trap for those who identify themselves with it, or be used as an Alexandrian library at its best, leaving the student the freedom to be autonomous. Or to learn to own up to it, in freedom of choice.
