of course, but it will not happen in the united states in public schools. the united states has collectively decided education doesnt matter, and is more of a hindrance to military spending than anything else.
private schools in the u.s. are already on the corrective paths of sweden with regards to screen times and physical books, smaller classrooms and longer class times.. but its all about the money. the united states already cannot pay for teachers. full stop, thats it. we cannot afford to pay human beings enough to be teachers, where the fuck do you think money would come to pivot back to a more time-consuming and effective method of education??
it will not happen as long as the military is the primary reason for our existence
e. i say cannot .. but the reality is they choose not to
This is as it always should have been.
When I was in high school they added digital whiteboards and it wrecked the other kids learning. I took a class with younger year kids and they didn’t focus at all on the digital content.
In university some classes used projectors some didn’t, and the blackboard and chalk based pacing meant the teacher was writing at the same speed as you, so there was always a bit of downtime to think or write or ponder the content.
There were classes with computer labs, or the library had banks of computers when a class needed them. It’s fine to have a projector to show rich content when needed. The default really should be a blackboard (or whiteboard) and books.
