High schools in Denmark are taking steps to help students focus on their schoolwork by blocking certain websites such as social media and shopping sites. The Danish Ministry of Children and Education has issued recommendations to limit Internet distractions in schools. However, some students believe that these measures are not effective as they are easily able to bypass the restrictions. At Niels Brock Gymnasium in Copenhagen, students are required to turn in their mobile phones at the start of classes to prevent distractions. The goal of these restrictions is to improve student concentration, but it seems that students are finding ways to access prohibited websites despite the school’s efforts. The debate over Internet restrictions in schools continues as students voice their opinions on the effectiveness of these measures.
