As long school doesn’t push on m@rksism and woke agenda, doesn’t matter what tools it will use for education.

I have no connection with anyone and don’t think it has anything to do with screens.

I have taught 2 week long Permaculture courses in a rather remote location. The first year there was barely enough electricity to keep everyone’s devices charged. There was definitely no signal or internet. The connection between the participants was incredible! Most effective teaching experience I have ever had as well. Then in the years that followed the internet, phone signal and availability of electricity improved. People were more distracted, would leave in the middle of a lesson to take a phonecall and were concerned with who was next to charge their devices.
It’s just anecdotal but I am convinced the quality of the course and the connection everyone had with each other was totally changed by the availability of our modern devices.

I think nothing will beat a screen for attention. The screen wins every time if it’s a contest, so don’t even make it an option

Sweden is making a habit of trying the bad ideas first, but are also remarkably good at course correction. Well done.
