Maybe it will work with IOT in the 3rd attempt? 😅

I have my doubts that people think it's great when the fridge orders a bag of coke after a botched update.

@Epi I'm not a fan of it myself, but that's not the point. I wouldn't drive a $TSLA either and I don't have a $AAPL device. Nevertheless, there are enough people who like it. My son has just graduated from high school. When he started sixth form two years ago, he was told, "Dad, I need an iPad now. Why? Well, the teachers no longer hand out documents and worksheets, they send them via Air Drop 😉😂

@Multibagger Oh dear, your poor son.
The Swedes have been through these experiments and after disastrous drops in pupil performance, they've gone back to pen and paper. Meanwhile, Germany is going the opposite way... and is currently seeing a disastrous drop in student performance.

My doubts about IOT remain, especially in education policy.

@Epi He's finished school now. But I don't think it will be any different at university.

@Multibagger Unfortunately, you will probably be right...

@Epi I don't think it's so bad at that age. And at least at my son's grammar school, the average A-level grades have been steadily falling for three years. So a rather positive development. 10% had 1.0 or better. The average was 2.1. What I find worrying is that people are starting to work with technical aids as early as elementary school. They can no longer do the simplest calculations in their heads. From the upper school onwards, I think it makes sense as preparation for working life. Not before that.
