The 15th Beijing International Film Festival

from Round Table China · host China Plus

We recommend one film from the 15th Beijing International Film Festival. Today we recommend "Better Me, Better You". / Smartphones have become extensions of ourselves—so what happens when schools restrict them? From China's classroom bans (correlated with rising dropout rates) to UK campaigns for smartphone-free childhoods over mental health concerns, educators face an impossible choice: protect students' focus or risk disengaging them entirely (09:06). On the show: Steve Hatherly, Niu Honglin & Laiming
