The amount of trouble you had to go through just to get to this page symbolizes how slow and ineffective current technology is in terms of education. Sometimes, teachers entire lessons were based around using Wi-Fi, only to discover that the wifi is down. At least for Grand Erie, technology can be really slow and defeats the whole purpose of using it. The solution to this would be to cut technology usage down a little bit, and only use it when nessesary, and to have an effective block for social media apps such as Snapchat, Instagram, and Youtube, to prevent distraction. They should also teach teachers how to use technology effectlively in the classroom, and shouldn't depend on programs like Prodigy or Duolingo. There would also be some value in having individual laptops for students, so they could track breaches on the rules more effectively. There should be teachers teaching students how to type and use computers, so that all students know how to do it and not depend on online programs.

But what about schools preparing students for the real world???? Well, that could be fairly simple. You would just have to make sure everybody knows how to:

  1. How to vote
  2. Who is running for prime minister, and what they stand for
  3. How to pay taxes
  4. How to manage your own money
  5. How to stay out of debt
  6. and to Know how inequal the world is
