I have a friend who is a teacher. This is some part of the way, but as they said, the real problem is "the kids see school as a waiting room in between dopamine hits", "they are constantly agitated and short-tempered". This matches other descriptions I've seen in the news and of withdrawl. For reference, I was at this school when a phone was not a given and we had a land-line for calling home after school. Some part of this transformation can take place in the classroom, but as has been said ad-nauseum, something needs to be done about algorithmic feeds.
