Cellphone Usage Blog Post

I'm going to be talking about the usage of my phone and how it relates to what we have learned about multitasking and cellphone addiction. As well as how my data compares to the different data from my grade. Overall my goal is to become aware of my cellphone use as it relates to how it affects my body and mind. I found out that being addicted to your phone is a real thing and my people around the world are in fact addicted to their cellphones or at least close to being addicted. I also learned that theres an actual explanation for that feeling of needing to check your phone. Which is that your brain gives off dopamine which makes you feel a rush to check your phone when you get a message. I now know that I need to control my phone usage to avoid getting addicted to my phone. You can control your phoen usage by creating no phone times throughout your day, you avoid using your phone throughout the first 30 min of your day, and you can turn off your phone when your about to drive.

I collected my cellphone usage data by using the checky app where I took the data and input it in the google spreadsheet. (LINK BELOW)
