Dear Caleb,

How much time is too much time? Are we talking a few percentage points or a whole letter grade? You have to get me something to work with here. I know you want an education, I just don’t know if you’re looking for the basic package or one of our premium plans.

What he said! Students are human; humans will (more often than not) choose the path of least resistance.

Hotter take: make it 10 years and now we’re talking.

Oh god, me, I guess. I’m good at playing the game, but I’m the queen of disagreeable.

This does not necessitate smartphones being in schools.
There is a telephone in every school (and classroom!) and parents have always been able to communicate with their kids. Parents being constantly connected to kids is part of the problem. It’s deeper than social media.

Jonathan Haidt wrote an entire book about why cell phones should be banned in schools. There is not a shred of research that supports having cell phones in schools helps kids in any way, and a mountain of it that proves the opposite. They are designed to be addictive.

It’s something you never forget. Now you can start playing the game instead of the other way around.

You were the first post that came up after I started following #EduSky. Fate?

An untapped goldmine, indeed. Hand me a pickaxe!
