The dependency on smartphones has been growing in recent years among young people, with some students even clinging to their mobile phone in class, distracting them from their lessons and their studies.
To try to mitigate this situation, the Taiyuan University of Technology, in the city of Taiyuan, in Shanxi province recently began encouraging students to put their smartphone in storage bags that have been added to each classroom.
