Today’s idiot school kids are tomorrow’s idiot educators.

By saying “he said the quiet part out loud” you’re implying he’s saying something bad or wrong, he’s not, every school, parent, government and tech bro should be hearing this and doing something about it.

Reason gates and jobs never let their own kids touch tech till they were late teens

A traditional education for the fundamentals, with some focused skill drills that broach on tech. Literally a typing class - to help in proficiency with computer usage, so that once children take an interest later on in programming or CAD or whatever - they're capable of clearing the first hurdle in proficiency. Typing. Basically, computer usage. Anything beyond that, at this education level, is bordering on frivolous imo.

I can't really think of any good reason for having tablets or chromebooks, literal simian species are known to pick up and within a short while become proficient in their usage with touchscreens. Toddler children can do so as well. They do little in stimulating learning.

It only gets worse with Gen Alpha. I teach 2nd grade and they’re at a kinder level in reading and math. The parents also dgaf bc work is more important.
