Addressing the workshop, Dr. Sumia Batul said that in this era of technology, unnecessary use of smartphones had some very negative effects on the academic performance of students.

According to an estimate, students in Pakistan spent seven to eight hours a day on unnecessary use of smartphones. She talked about quality of note-taking strategies and informed the students about various technical skills.
