the 50s, the 60’s, the 70’s …the 80s, the 90s, the early 00s…
okay now backwards, all the way back to BCE…
humans have learned with teachers, books, pencils and paper for centuries.
I have a son with severe ADHD. I work with his school and pay attention to his education. From what I see, pencil on paper is the best way for our brains to retain information, things like spelling and multiplication. Slow learning gives longevity and the ability to recall said information.
Show me the evidence computer learning is best, long term. One cant, because children learning on screens full time, are not entirely out or school even just yet. There are no long term studies. In my country, numbers are falling fast in education. We had a blip for covid, but it seems its not gotten better.
My son has to do something called Iready on the computer for Language Arts.
They make every lesson a game. Bright lights, cartoon characters, games, funny sounds. And least for my son, he doesnt retain it. Years on Iready, and he couldnt write a paragraph. One year with a teacher using traditonal methods (same as I been trying to do at home, how I learned) and he now can write one.
