[quote=Anonymous]Our kids really just gave up on school at the end of last term- and just told us they spent most the day playing video games on their Chromebooks.  The teachers some times police this but I think just gave up as the year came to a close.

MAP scores were way down ( even dropped for the whole year, lower in summer than fall). MCPS is not teaching our kids to learn- they are teaching them to veg out all day!

The kids are apparently sharing Google docs with links to games. And keep adding new ones as old ones get blocked.

Has anyone had any luck with their school to restrict Chromebook video game time?

Are we supposed to accept our kids being turned into screen addicts?

Good article on where we are now with Chromebooks-
