[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have been in 2 different elementary schools and I would say that there is far too much screen time these days. Reading/phonics is done on Lexia - must do Lexia every day. Math is frequently on Math playground or whatever that is called - where they consider math to be dressing your penguin or prodigy, which also lets kids spend an oddly weird amount of time dressing characters. Reading is often done on MyOn - not with real books. Indoor recess? Screentime! Lunch? Movie time! Having said that, I'm not sure privates are any better.

There is a growing movement away from tech in schools now that there is more research about how it reduces learning. Unfortunately, it probably won't happen fast enough for my kids or yours. [/quote]

THIS ^^.  You nailed it.  I can only hope that by the time I have grandchildren, the pendulum has swung back to no screens in class.  The kids are so much happier when the teacher actually READS them a book.[/quote]

There is no way that we will use less technology in 2050.[/quote]

And there will be more acceptance of virtual public schools. [/quote]

Because that worked out so well during the pandemic.

If there's virtual public school, everyone will be just as smrt (mispelling intentional) as they are in M. T. Anderson's sci fi book Feed, where tech has taken over and people are utter idiots and the world is falling to pieces.[/quote]

Spoken by someone who clearly knows nothing.[/quote]
