[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]are students more or less prepared academically than 5.10.20 and 30 years ago?[/quote] Vastly less prepared: there are really no words to describe it. [b]The lack of curiosity on their part is what really gets me. Not only do they have less skill and less knowledge coming in, but they don't seem to desire more of either.[/b][/quote] This makes sense. My kids go to a top private where they have been forced to learn to write well, analyze text and read countless books. However, they don't have a drive to learn/explore etc. independently like I remember having at their age. I think this is a direct result of social media. They spend their free time absorbing ridiculously stupid and basic content. [/quote] yes!! the kid will do the most sophisticated stuff for a grade, then wallow in TikTok garbage at the first opportunity. so frustrating.[/quote]
