Classrooms lean into analog learning in the AI era
Parents, educators, and lawmakers are pushing to reduce classroom screen use due to concerns about attention and learning. Over 16 states have introduced bills to limit classroom technology, while schools like McPherson Middle School reported reduced suspensions after banning cellphones. The American Federation of Teachers advocates for AI and screen-time guardrails, but ed tech supporters argue for balanced use.
