[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd argue I had more computer time at school in the late 90s early 2000s than kids have today. We had a dedicated computer lab and we spent an hour in the lab once or twice a week. We even *gasp* used that time to just play games like Number Munchers and Oregon Trail. Parents didnt lose their minds and we all turned out perfectly fine. The pearl clutching is just over the top.[/quote] An hour in the computer lab twice a week is still WAY less than what my ES kid gets. And, when we had ‘Computer Lab’ time in ES, they actually taught us programming sometimes (BASIC). MCPS has not ever done programming. Or typing. I don’t really see parents on this thread ‘losing their minds’. I see them expressive valid concerns about the over-reliance on screens, especially for our younger learners. [/quote]
