[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's wrong with screens at the elementary school level? They're wonderful, high-interest learning tools. Your child will use Promethean boards, chrome books, and iPads to research and plan writing assignments. They'll record themselves reading throughout the year so they can hear progress. They'll help update websites, record podcasts to share with parents, create powerpoint presentations, graph results, and practice basic facts at their own pace. Technology is not a bad thing! [/quote] And then the teachers will suggest to the parents to limit screentime at home. Well if they're using iPads and Smartboards in school, and they have to get on Blackboard to get to their assignments and use online textbooks, when the hell are they supposed to enjoy a half-hour of downtime in front of the TV? Thanks, schools, for so much damn screentime.[/quote]
