Students are getting laptops in class at a very young age. It's ruining them, no textbooks, just laptops. They're constantly hiding things in other tabs, playing music loudly, and just doing everything but their assigned work. It's crazy to me that schools do this. I'm not sure how they're learning anything. We need to bring back textbooks and computer labs. How do you even handle this as full time teachers?

I only allow them to use laptops for specific activities, then grade on participation. I know some school, including mine have a way of viewing what is being done on each laptop. VNC Thumbnail viewer, was the program that allowed me to watch all of their screens live from my computer at my desk. I had so much fun remotely closing tabs, and in a couple of cases logging them off when they were off task. They learned quick that they don't have the privacy they thought they did. Think Panopticon for the effect on the class.

I use paper and pen a lot. My guess is that we will eventually go back to relying less on technology-ironically enough

With product design questions, I struggle to identify user groups. Once I do everything starts flowing and I’m confident.

For example, the question “design a podcasting app for truck drivers.” What types of truck drivers can I select so that I can prioritize a user group to focus on and begin identification of pain points and solutions?

New York folks:
Are you aware of the CPA exam credit extension to 2021 for NY CPA candidates impacted by COVID19? It’s on a person-by-person basis and you need to request the extension. Has anyone tried doing this yet? Can anyone shine more light on this? The extension would really help me, but I’m not sure what more to tell them in my email than the fact that I couldn’t sit for the exams this Spring/Summer due to test centers closing in NYC.

I read this super interesting article about how big companies like Toyota are investing in social-emotional training for their employees and seeing massive benefits. I actually think this could be a whole separate class for students of all ages. Learning about conflict resolution, growing your own self-regulation skills...it's really important.
