A
university in southwest China's Chongqing City set up a reading room as part of
a campaign (活动)
that stops
students from taking their mobile phones with them in case the device distracts (使分心) them from concentrating on
their studies.
Reportedly
a student named Hu Xiaopeng participating in the campaign studied 530 minutes
without using his mobile phone. Unlike Hu, another one picked up his mobile
phone in less than 20 minutes. "Having seen many students use their mobile
phones in the library, a habit that shortens their study time and negatively
impacts their learning, we decided to open this reading room," said Zhang
Shuran, the person responsible for the project at the university.
Zhang
added that students can keep their phones in appointed bags with numbers on
them. The bags are placed on a desk near the door of the reading room. "Staff
members at the reading room will check the phones when there's a call,"
said Zhang, adding that they will inform students when their parents or teachers
call them, but will not tell students if an unknown person is calling or when
there is a text message. Based on the
time students hand in their phones when they come to the reading room and the
time they get them back when they leave the room, Hu Xiaopeng from College of
Animal Science and Technology of the university set a record of the longest
time. Hu spent 530 minutes studying without using his phone. Though feeling
somewhat surprised, Hu said, "It's bad
to keep mobile phone with you when you are reading or studying."
The
campaign has attracted nearly 200 students since it was launched a week ago.
Some Internet users praised the campaign. One user named Liu Jingchang said, "It's good. I don't bring my phone
when going to the library in case I get distracted."
