[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree with 14:21. There is research to suggest kids learn or process information differently when using a computer. There is research showing screen time at night affects sleeping patterns. I have not followed research re: radiation exposure so I can't really comment. Just wanted to stress that screen time has and is being studied. l Not to say that computers can't help kids learn or that kids shouldn't be exposed to technology but there needs to be balance. Schools should use existing research to guide how they use computers. [/quote] Thanks for bringing those two concerns (information retention and circadian rhythms) up. I'm 14:21, and I think those are great examples of real, research-based concerns about over exposure to tech. Personally, I think they are BS, but that's the beauty of evidence-baseD policy making - my personal opinion doesn't matter. If there is research suggesting a concern, we need to take it seriously.[/quote]
