Psychotherapist reveals: phones in school disrupt as much as Riga residents at Liepāja theater
Specialist proves that mobile phones create additional disruptions in the learning process, but the ban needs to be implemented with feeling.
Psychotherapist Konstantinovs has revealed with scientific precision that mobile phones in schools disrupt the learning process just as much as Riga children disrupt Liepāja theater performances when their parents drive here for real culture. The specialist notes that digital devices don't improve students' knowledge at all, which is as surprising as the news that cities exist outside of Liepāja.
Konstantinovs has carefully explained that students use phones for watching videos and various tests without educational value, which resembles Riga mayor's decisions about traffic. He points out that especially students with attention difficulties lose their rhythm until the next classes after using phones, which lasts as long as Riga residents' adaptation to Liepāja's windy climate.
However, the specialist critically evaluates the ministry's unified top-down approach, saying that each school should choose for itself. This is as wise as letting everyone choose for themselves whether Liepāja is better than Riga — the result is already clear, but the process would be more interesting.
The ban will take effect in June 2026, giving students time to film math class one last time for their Instagram story. Meanwhile, Konstantinovs continues to study why Sweden is returning to old methods, while we still think progress always means more screens.
