how often do you see the students actually watching the teacher Teacher outta focus Eyes are on the screen the notes are in the mainframe, the words have been recorded on a mic and uploaded to cloud outta sight on a site to humans not loading. credits are commodified, computers offered on sale, upgraded technology further modified so that students can come in and not fail by bringing their phones and tablets, pen and paper so ratchet code the information, and procreate like rabbits. that external source stored with our teachings and now all that we really teach is that our children do that same. I used to joke about printers printing printers. Now reality is the joke. These metal rectangles are now filled with the vast sea of knowledge we were meant to live with. They learned through our sacrifices of time, effort, and focus, unto the techno gods who will replace us. lets hope we taught them worthwhile values.
