[quote=Anonymous]This is why my kids go to a public Montessori school that doesn't utilize screens other than when it is absolutely necessary in the upper grades and for required testing. I taught at a school that was 1:1 tech and emphasized computers, and it was a challenge to get admin to realize that learning math on a computer is not the best method. The students would never work out problems on paper even if it was supplied and taught to them. I've also seen teachers utilize screens to pacify students and to lift the burden of creating differentiated work. I understand it's easier, but that doesn't make it better. And if I wouldn't want something for my kids, I certainly don't want it for my students.[/quote]
