[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm laughing about the video presentations. What my kid is able to produce now, especially the foreign language ones for their exchange school, is so much more advanced than when I did in the early 90s. Creating video presentations for educational purposes is not a 2020's phenomena. It's just a lot easier and better since you don't have to find the one friend with a recording device (or check it out from the school).[/quote] Exactly. Our junior high video presentations for various classes in the mid 90s were okay but nothing compared with the advanced capabilities of today. [u]To the one PPP, video and multimedia as a part of learning core subjects have been commonplace in public schools since the 80s if not before. They are not a waste of time. [/u] [/quote] And this is exactly why public schools produce kids who are unable to write. They should be writing analysis and essays not tweaking multimedia.[/quote] These are not mutually exclusive skills. Videos don't replace writing. [/quote]
