The Case Against Excessive Tech in Classrooms 📚

Arjen Lentz

https://lca2020.linux.org.au/schedule/presentation/230/

Technology is useful, but it's a tool (a means to achieve goals), not a goal in itself.
Our mis-use of tech is sabotaging many aspects of society, but education especially so.
In this short talk, Arjen will plead a comprehensive case, presenting evidence on where the key culprits are.

After hearing the evidence, what will be your judgement?
Knowing and understanding what we're dealing with, may help us to help educators.
