[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In addition to the Education Technology Review Committee, the Governance Committee is drafting language around a new technology policy. They are discussing it at tomorrow’s work session: https://go.boarddocs.com/vsba/fairfax/Board.nsf/goto?open&id=DU3P8R636C59 FCPS Parents for Intentional Technology is pushing removal of devices in the younger grades and that seems to be in this draft. [/quote] It would certainly go a long way, but replacing things like "YouTube video of person reading storybook" with the teacher reading an actual physical book would be nice too. I understand there are many reasons why they do the video read aloud, or just look to BrainPop to teach certain concepts, but most kids deeply prefer actual in-person interaction to watching some stranger read or talk on a screen.[/quote]
