Says the neurotypical teacher to the kid who can't concentrate without music during study time.
During class. You made up "study time". No one cares if your on your phone studying during "study time" in the library. But if someone is lecturing you shouldn't be on your phone or have earbuds in.
Just do what I did in school and put an earphone down your sleeve. Rest head on hand. Listen to music. It's not difficult, I got away with it in exams ffs (I dont recommend that last bit btw, that was young stupidity in hindsight)
You aren't wrong, but I'm hoping for more institutional changes to the way we determine what helps the next generation learn.
many entire generations of people did not have this luxury
Many generations of people didn't have the luxury of an MRI machine. Are you going to deny people that because of it?
not a great comparison
It's your argument.
I'm not arguing anything I made a statement
Can you not pair Bluetooth earbuds to your school laptop?
Oh, so laptops are okay, but phones aren't?
I can try to make the material interesting and be engaging but if you're watching Overwatch on your phone all of that is a moot point.
OP take a look back at this in about 5-10 years and realize how monumentally ignorant it is.
I just wanted to be able to listen to my music while doing work.
"oh no i cannot play on my phone, how could school be so cruel"
I actually doubt that phones are the major reason for a post like this. There are many reasons that you could fill in that only happen to some schools but phones happen to be the only one that applies to nearly every school. For example, at my school, our lunches have been cut down to shit 15 minutes at most, and if you buy lunch, it's much less. We usually have them call 5 minutes left. Sometimes they will say the kitchen is closed, sometimes they can't because people are still ordering.
One thing I miss about reddit is that I could just filter out r/teenagers
We've been so busy fighting extremists and gross fetish porn that we forgot to quarantine the annoying children.
