[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parents used to read to kids and give them picture books; now they hand them an ipad.[/quote] Teachers also often just play a YouTube video of someone else reading a book. I get that this allows them to introduce different books without buying them, but so much of the connection that sparks a joy of reading is lost. And the tech in schools is part of the terrible feedback loop also. Yes the tech happens because toddlers get iPads, but it also continues to fracture attention and make it harder on parents.[/quote]
