This was a really insightful article around the rapid embracing of educational technology brought about during the Pandemic. One interesting thing worth noting is that while declines in test scores intensified during the lockdowns, the author of this article also shows that this decline started before the lockdowns, in fact after 2012. What happened around 2012 … “the sudden appearance of a laptop or tablet on every student’s desk.” I’m consistently amazed when my student brings home a worksheet vs a form based lesson on Google Classroom. While I think technology is wonderful and should be embraced especially in schools, it’s also critical that there’s a balance between paper based and computer based education. I’m not certain we’ve found that balance yet and so I’m happy to come across more articles and evidence around the challenges faced with technology.
