There is bad news for students who like to use their mobile phones while they study. New research shows that students do not learn very well when they are texting and checking their social media accounts. The research is called: "Mobile Phones in the Classroom: Examining the Effects of Texting, Twitter, and Message Content on Student Learning". Researchers looked at 145 American university students in the classroom. Some of the students used their mobile phones during class, while the others had their phones switched off. The head researcher, Dr Jeffrey Kuznekoff, said students who did not use their mobile phones while the teacher was talking got higher scores on tests they took at the end of the class.

对于那些一边学习一边用手机的学生来说这并不是一个好消息。一项新的研究表明一边学习一边发短信，玩社交媒体的学生的学习并不好。这项研究名叫：“教室中的手机：短信、推特、短信内容对学生学习的影响”。研究人员对145名美国大学生进行了调查。许多学生在上课时使用手机，一些人上课时关机。研究主任杰弗里称上课不使用手机的学生的期末成绩会高。

Kuznekoff said that one of the biggest challenges teachers have in the classroom is the non-stop battle of keeping students working. He said many students felt they needed to be online and checking messages even when they had important work to do in class. The researchers said it is very common for students to be physically present in class, but mentally absent because they are using their mobiles. Kuznekoff said teachers were fighting a "losing battle" because students were more interested in social media than learning. The London School of Economics did a study in England and found that test scores increased by six per cent after mobile phones were banned in class.

Kuznekoff称老师在课堂上遇到的最大挑战是让学生始终处于学习状态。他说许多学生认为他们需要一边学习一边上网，看短信。研究人员称学生上课很普遍，但是由于他们使用手机，所以他们总是处于走神状态。Kuznekoff称老师总会败下阵来，因为比起学习，学生对社交媒体更感兴趣。伦敦经济学院在英格兰进行了一项调查，发现禁止在教室使用手机的考试分数能够提高6%。
