In today's world, where technology has become an inseparable part of life, a high school teacher from the millennial generation recalls the happy days of their education in the 1990s. They believe that today’s children are increasingly losing abilities that were once natural for past generations.
The Impact of Technology on Education
This teacher points out that during their schooling, attention and focus on learning were integral parts of education, noting that now students are more engaged with digital tools rather than learning content. In their opinion, the reduction of human interactions and reliance on technology has led to a decline in fundamental skills such as critical thinking and problem-solving in children.
They further add that the lack of sufficient attention in classrooms and the constant use of smartphones have severely impacted the learning experience. Will these changes come at the cost of the educational future of the new generation?
