A university in east China’s Shandong province recently launched a campaign promoting "cellphone-free classroom", suggesting the students to turn off their phones because the cellphone could distract them from the class.

By doing so, the Department of Basic Medicine of Taishan Medical University believed the students could learn more from the lectures.

According to a teacher of the department, the "cellphone-free classroom" has not only boosted teacher's passion for teaching, but also made the students more concentrated.
