A section of people think that, these devices are threat to brain functioning mechanism.In contrast, some think these devices provide many benefits in terms of communication and connectivity.

The negative impact of using mobile devices can lead to different health concerns. For instance, there was a research performed on a set of people to observe the dynamic nature of brain.The results came up with some surprising facts that an individual who uses a mobile for minimum of 3 hours on a day had an unstable brain functioning, compared to the one who was not. Thus, the usage of mobile phones must be restricted, to have a stable and healthy brain activities.These researchers believe that,phones as a health hazards and foresee its usage can have more negative impacts in various aspects.

On contrary, people being aware of these health issues, they still look at the positive factors.

HI Tina,

I welcome your suggestions.But I have a point to bring up on this context

1. On what basis you have decided to present essay in argument style. You can't just consider every thing in argument style.
Well, I think looking at the question keywords "Is it positive or negative" then, as per my understanding I think, these keywords no where talking about opinion but they seem to resemble about the affects of development. "Experts need your suggestions".

Correct me, keen to see your comments about the above highlighted point.

Regards
Bunni

I Know what you mean . See that question is asking u clearly that is it a positive devlopment or negative developement ? You can answer this q at the beginning in your mind that which side u want to favour. Argument style does not mean that u r arguing , infact you are structuring your answer in this style with examples and explanation of the side that you have choosen. I dont know , i may be wrong . Ryan says that it is always better to choose any one side rather that taking a middle path. See , time is a major factor and this is a tip to conquer time restrain. Please watch his videos and hopefully your ideas will be more clearer. I used to think exactly like u . when the question says that discuss both the views , then u should adopt discussion style and answer your question in concluding paragraph after analyses of all facts. While here you can decide your answer in introduction itself.
