[quote=Anonymous]Another lingering effect of the pandemic is an overzealous reliance on screens to “educate.” I work at a well resourced (but not elite) private school. If I’m waking the hall while I’m off, I see class after class of kids zoned out on a device while the teacher just talks within no idea what’s happening. No big behavior issues but not much learning either. I make my students put all the devices away and assess differently. It works. It helps. Ed Tech is a scam. I suggest seizing their wealth and using it to pay paras (let’s call them assistant teachers) the $50 K per year they deserve. [/quote]
