Brazil introduces law restricting smartphone use in schools amid concern over the impact on learning
Briefly

Brazil has enacted a law that significantly limits smartphone use in schools, following a growing international trend in an effort to improve educational environments. Signed by President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, the law applies to both public and private educational institutions, enforcing restrictions in classrooms and school halls. While smartphones remain permissible for educational purposes with teacher consent, individual schools can develop specific guidelines regarding their use. This move comes as previously, several Brazilian states had already implemented mobile restrictions, aligning with the results of a national survey indicating broad limitations in many schools.
Brazilian students are now required to limit smartphone use in schools due to a new law, a move reflecting global trends in educational environments.
With President Lula's law, schools in Brazil gain the autonomy to craft their own mobile phone guidelines, reflecting ongoing discussions about technology in education.
