No one in the world knows what the hell do with mobile phones in classrooms. Not even scientific research

Imagine two students of a similar level doing exactly the same attention and memory test. Imagine, in fact, there is only one difference between them: one has the mobile in sight. It is silent, in a corner of the table, with the sound off; But it is in sight. The other student, before starting the test, had left it in the next room. I would ask you to imagine who would get better results, but it doesn’t make too much sense. A team from the University of Chicago and He studied it in detail. There is nothing surprising in this mental experiment, the results coincide with our prejudices: The student who sees the mobile will get worse results. It is something, also that connect directly to our experience real, with Our Fomowith Our “dependence” to mobile. How are we not going to worry about the damage made by these technologies in the classroom? How will the smartphone not become a first -order educational problem? And that is precisely the problem: that if we stay on the surface of the problem, in the social and political debate, we find a Spectacular political consensus (with several Autonomous communities prohibiting them from hype and saucer); But if we deepen the scientific fund, the problems begin. Life is not summarized in an experiment from the University of Chicago. So, we have wondered what really happens in a school when we prohibit mobile phones? What experiences have other countries and colleges that have already taken measures? Why is there no clear consensus about what to do? What does the experience say? Verkeorg The scenes are almost a cliché: kids looking at the mobile phone, notifications that interrupt classes, parallel chats commenting on what happens in the classroom, bullying, anonymous messages, worried families, decentralized students … With all this in mind, it is not surprising that dozens of experts, activists and parents warn of the negative consequences for learning associated with mobile use. In fact, with all this in mind, it is not strange that Many countries have begun to take letters In the matter: one in four countries It has regulated the use of mobiles in school. The list is very long. If we only focus on our geographical, cultural or development environment: they have done so places like France, Italy, Luxembourg, Portugal, Canada or Australia. The first country to do so, in fact, was Italy. In late 2006 and early 2007, several incidents impacted fully on the country’s public opinion: from a group of students who recorded bulling another student with disabilities to another in which several students were recorded sexually harassing a teacher. That led the government to prohibit mobile in class. Unfortunately, its implementation was complex and there are not many data on its impact. What we do know is that in 2022 the Ministry of Education announced its prohibition againRecoding that (although no one paid attention to him) the measure had been in force for 15 years. We also know that by then, many more Páisses had regulated the matter. France approved its prohibition In 2018. In a similar situation are Luxembourg, Portugal and Sweden. In addition to Bavaria, the Swiss vaud canton, Ontario, Various states of Australia and dozens of school districts in the United States They have done the same. In 2023, Holland and the United Kingdom They said that it would also implement prohibitions From the following year. How have they done it? As we will see, this is the central question. First because, as Maria del Mar Sánchez pointed outProfessor of Educational Technology at the University of Murcia, none of these regulations has managed to homogenize the situation. If we approach what really happens in schools, “We will find great diversity“ Sánchez says. And this makes it difficult to apply, measure and study the consequences. The best example of this is Norway. In 2024, a report He explained That the prohibition of mobiles in classes had achieved a 60% reduction in consultations by psychological symptoms in adolescents, the decrease in cases of bulling and a significant improvement in the academic results of the girls. In addition, the effects it shows are much more intense on the low -income population. The curious thing, however, is that Norway I was not doing anything nationally with mobile phones. What was doing something was with bullying. Just coinciding with the period studied, the Nordic country was underway A series of changes To reduce bulling. The result is that, little by we are realistic, we will have to recognize that confusion is enormous. And is Spain? Being an autonomous competition, until recently each autonomous community and each educational center has decided on its own. As it seems, Galicia was a pioneer: In 2015 he published a decree prohibiting phones in class and, at the end of 2023, he also took a more vet during recess, dining room and entries or outputs of the center. Behind her (and in recent years) almost all communities have gone behind. But, again“one thing is the political and the holder and another the reality that he reaches the centers.” To the point that while Autonomic decrees were reformed To accommodate more hard disciplinary approaches, in others pilot projects to use mobiles were introduced as didactic tools. In short, Spain has been one more. Of course, it is important to note, however, that as Jose César Perales, professor at the University of Granada, explained in practice “the prohibition of mobile phones for non -educational use during school hours It was already the usual In most centers “that is, the most important change in recent years is that this prohibition is being made in a generalized way. In experts like Laura Canois part of a political response to the ‘state of opinion’ on the impact of technology rather than a clear will to intervene educationally in the huge list of problems That has contemporary youth. What does science say about all this? Let’s talk about academic performance Pabak … Read more

Buying a mobile in China is a brutal savings compared to Spain. The question is whether it ends out expensive

Mobile prices They have shot themselves, a lot. The High Premium range Round the 1,500 euros, the high range of 1,000 and it is not strange to find mid -range for about 500 euros. This has fired a fever for reconditioned and used mobiles, but also opens an interesting door in a crucial market in Spain: that of Chinese phones. Xiaomi is absolute king in Spainand manufacturers such as Vivo, Oppo and Honor Copan the Top 10. In not a few cases, these phones arrive in our country with cut -out specifications with respect to the Chinese variants. We will try to dissipate that fog around the purchase of mobiles in its Chinese version, outside the traditional distributors that sell the European and global versions we know. Hardware of Chinese VS European Before delving into the purchase process, it is convenient to know what they differ (and why they do) Chinese mobiles with respect to Europeans, since it is not minor details that separate some proposals from others. The battery. If we attend to recent releases, such as the Xiaomi 15 Ultra or the Magic7 Pro Honorthere is a key difference in the Chinese variant: it has much more battery. In Europe we receive practically the same model, but with a quite lower battery capacity. Reason? One: the costs. In the specific case of batteries, the new generation of Silicon-carbon with capacities of 6,000 or more milliamps hour It is especially expensive. Chinese manufacturers sell at a price in their native country, but import telephones to Spain has numerous costs related to transport, fees and taxes. Xiaomi herself recognized us that, if they wanted to continue bringing mobiles without raising prices, They had to cut off somewhere. The software. This is not the only difference we find and, sometimes, the Software differences They are especially relevant. This is the case of Vivo, who sells its phones with A -Ecuchos in Europe and with origin in his native country. OnePlus does the same with Oxygenos In Europe and color in China (although, for practical purposes, they are exactly the same), and Huawei is the most extreme case of all. In Europe, Emui, in China its own operating system, Harmonyos. In addition to not having Google services in China, these software differences can generate important incompatibilities with mobile payment services through NFC, and even HDR content reproduction in Netflix, since there are certain Google certificates that are not available in Chinese variants. The camera. Although camera hardware is usually identical regardless of the mobile version we buy, the image process is usually quite different. Manufacturers adapt how to process the final photography depending on the market to which the phone is intended. Sometimes they succeed, sometimes not so much. This is the case of the living X200 Pro, whose Chinese version Take better photographs than the global Hardware equality. Connectivity. If you buy a mobile in its Chinese version, you may suffer some problems related to connectivity. Yes, all 5G Chinese mobiles can use 5G in Spain, but there is a fact to take into account: bands. In China the same 5G bands are not used, and you may end up buying a phone that lacks crucial bands. What are these bands for? Mainly, so that you have good coverage in complicated areas, such as rural or interior. Some of the most used bands in Spain are not used in China. Mobile payments. Paying with the mobile is a basic, and some mobile phones with Chinese rom have serious problems to get it in Spain. This is due to the lack of native Google services and certification problems such as Play Integrity API. How much we save buying the mobile in China If the question is how much it saves buying a mobile directly from China the question is … big money. Technically at this price we should add VAT and customs costs. The reality is that Chinese stores are responsible for adjusting the customs statement so that we do not have to pay (generally) nothing extra. Even if you have to pay an extra tax, it would continue to account. In some cases, buying the mobile from China costs almost half, a very point to take into account if we are willing to face the small inconveniences we have mentioned above. The questions to be asked when buying a mobile from China Well, we already know that a mobile purchased in China will arrive with Chinese Rom (yes, sellers usually pre -installed Google services so you can use all your apps without problem), which you may miss any band (something you can check in your list of Specs), which you will save a lot of money and may what you are buying is even better than the global model. Now it’s time to answer some extra questions. How long does a mobile take from China? This will depend completely on the store and its shipping method, but this has ceased to be a problem for years. If the store is solvent you can have the mobile at home in less than a week. In the worst case, the waiting time is usually two to three weeks. What guarantee does a telephone bought in China have? If you buy a mobile outside the European Union, the guarantee depends completely on the seller. In recent years, most stores have put the batteries, and offer repair guarantees between one and two years. Of course, we will pay the shipping costs, and sending to China is not especially cheap. What version am I buying? Depending on the version we buy, the phone will have hardware and software characteristics. For example, if we buy an Xiaomi with Global Rom from China, we will have a phone with the best of the European version at a much lower price. If we buy the version with Chinese ROM, we will have a phone with an English system and some problems. It should always be assured which exact … Read more

Your Android mobile will begin to restart only every three days if a condition is met. It’s excellent news

Google is deploying a new security function inherited from iOS. The source code I made believe that this characteristic would be exclusive to Android 16but now we know it will be universal. Your Android mobile will restart every three days, automatically, if it remains inactive during that period. A function that a priori may seem lower, but whose impact is much higher than it might seem. What will happen. The new notes of Google system versionrelated to the updates of Google Play services, refer to a new exclusive function for mobile phones. “(Telephone) With this function, your device will restart automatically if it remains blocked for 3 consecutive days.” The explanation cannot be easier: if you do not use your phone for 72h, that will restart automatically. It is something that It has been happening in iOS from version 18and that addresses a main reason. Why will it happen. That your Android will restart every three days if you do not use it is not a whim, it is a security measure. A newly restarted phone is a safer phone. ROMs as Grapheneos They restart the phone every 18h (even if we are using it), and is one of the most recommended practices to protect the mobile. The importance of restarting. Security reports point out that We should never have the mobile on 24/7. Restart the phone eliminates certain processes and data stored in memory. Some of these temporary data are precisely those used by attackers to exploit system vulnerabilities. Restarting the phone is not a magical solution, but one of the best ways to keep the mobile somewhat more protected. In addition, in the case of Android, it is something that can help your useful life. During the week we accumulate apps processes and processes that do not close, and restarting the phone everything returns to its initial state. The face b. It is more than likely to have a secondary mobile. A mobile of work, one that you use as GPS, or any telephone oriented to specific functions. Many of these phones are almost always lit and we may have not restarted months. If this is the case, make sure you know the unlock code and the PIN code of the SIM card, since in each restart you will be required. And if you forget the pinyou just have to use the Puk or contact your operator. If you forget the mobile unlock codeyou are in trouble.

That my mobile can see for me is as scary as fascinating. I have tried Gemini Live’s eyes

In December 2024 OpenAi surprised the world with a simply brutal function: Chatgpt had “eyes” and was able to see and interpret the world in real time. The demo was simply impressive: the app, through the camera, could recognize everything I saw. And everything is everything. In early 2025, Google announced great novelty to Gemini Liveyour advanced voice mode. A way that comes to compete directly with this chatgpt function, and that is already available for Google Pixel 9 and Samsung Galaxy S25. As long as you pay the Advanced subscription. I have been able to prove this function in a Google Pixel 9 Pro. And yes, it’s as impressive as you might think. The interface. Acting the new “Vision” modes of Gemini Live is quite simple. You just have to open the app and go to the advanced voice mode (the icon of the lower right corner). Once Gemini Live is opened, you will see two new direct accesses: one to give access to the camera and another to give access to your screen. Because yes, you can also read the content of the screen in real time. Camera mode. When activating the camera mode, Gemini will see everything that the camera transmits. It is simply spectacular how it is capable of recognizing absolutely everything, and how quickly is recognizing concrete aspects such as plant types, technological device model (without putting anything in it). We can ask you everything, and it serves as a guide, translator and … private professor. The latter has seemed spectacular: solve equations, psychotechnical problems and all kinds of questions explaining the step by step. Screen mode. This mode is perhaps the most movie at the privacy level but, if we are willing, Gemini is able to read everything you see on the screen. We can ask you any issues related to it. In this case I have not seemed so useful, since Google Lens gives us in a look at the necessary information if we are looking for something in particular. However, it is another sample of Gemini’s new potential. Do not trust AI, never. As always with AI, the recommendation is not to trust it. It is curious as, in a general plane of my desk, he has been able to perfectly recognize my computer. However, by focusing it directly, he told me that he did not see any computer. I have helped him asking if he is a Mac Mini M1 or a M4… and the answer has been that an M1 (they are very easily distinguishable by ports and size). He has also been wrong reading some numbers when asked about some psychotechnical test and, ultimately, you have to be quite above so that it works well. Nor of your questions. The problem shared by Gemini Live and GPT’s advanced conversation mode is clear: they are too much ask. To foster conversation, the answers with a question always end, something especially annoying in this mode of vision. It is very difficult to get to the grain, since it usually interrupts the complete answer with some question. It is still a smaller problem shared with all AI, but breaks the conversational flow a bit. Despite this, Gemini Live’s vision seems barbaric.

Xiaomi also has a folding mobile with which he intends to lead this sector. Now you can buy it reduced

The M-30 tunnels are an absolute nightmare for your mobile GPS. Madrid wants to fix it using bluetooth

If you have ever crossed the tunnels of the M-30it is more than likely that you have run out of coverage at some point. It is a more serious problem than it might seem, since the direct translation of not being clear what the correct exit ends up generating less fluidity and traffic safety. The Madrid City Council is aware of the problemand has announced the installation of a system that will allow GPS navigation systems, such as Google or Waze, to work properly within these areas. The problem. The M30 tunnels are especially extensive and thick, a terrible combination for the signal of the GPS satellites I can end up going through them. It is more than usual to lose connection when we are inside and, taking into account the importance of real -time calculations for current GPS systems, this ends up translating into a insured malfunction. The solution. From this Monday, the Madrid City Council will begin the installation of a Bluetooth electronic beacon system in order to allow guided navigation while we circulate through these tunnels. “The initiative is based on the implementation of location beacons with the objective of resolving the lack of the inviability of GPS navigation inside the tunnels as a result of the lack of visibility of satellites that allow obtaining a precise and continuous positioning through triangulation techniques.” The City Council itself admits that it is unfeasible to use GPS systems inside the tunnel. So in the absence of GPS, Bluetooth. How will it work. Madrid will locate different Bluetooth beacons inside the tunnels, with distances of 20 to 40 meters between each of them. They will be located on the sides of the tunnel by specific supports. These beacons will issue an identification signal to their own position, something that browsers can use to determine where we are. Because yes, although we are accustomed to using GPS signal, navigation apps can use Bluetooth when there is no coverage. Does not work by default. The problem of this measure is that Google Maps, the most used maps app in Spain, does not allow the default Bluetooth to use. It is necessary to navigate to the Android settings, go to “navigation”, and activate the Bluetooth beacons. In iOS the option is not available, although it is enough to activate the location functions so that it can work.
