I give absolutely zero fucks. Screens everywhere is the most developmentally impactful education policy I have seen in my lifetime. My local public school district (which my kids do not attend) has a 1:1 laptop policy, meaning each kid gets their own dedicated Chromebook. Under no circumstance will I send my children to schools that apparently think Google/Microsoft have the kids best interests at heart
Imagine the technological shift we could see if they were similarly powered linux laptops vs. Chromebooks. Get kids used to linux in school and I bet we'd start seeing Windows losing much more significant market share.
I can't imagine the shift would be much bigger than the kids just browsing tiktok/insta during class hours on chromium or firefox instead of chrome.
You could give them a Linux laptop and it would do all of the same things.
