Re: The EdTech Revolution Has Failed
I work in EdTech, I have for a very long time now, and the problem I have seen is no one in education is willing to ACTUALLY let kids learn at their own level.
The promise of EdTech was that kids could learn where they are. A kid who's behind can actually continue to learn rather than being left behind. A kid who's ahead can be nurtured.
We had this. It worked well, in my opinion at least, and the number of complaints and straight up threats because kids would learn things "they shouldn't be" was just… insanely frustrating.
Now in order to keep schools paying for our services, every kid is banded into a range based on their grade. They are scored/graded based on their grade level rather than their growth. It's such a crying shame.

Так, посони, у знайомих знайомих є гільзи від Леопарда, за донат звісно. Це ще комусь актуально в 2024? Є варіки розмальовані і чисті.

Re: Test
In my province in Canada (Quebec) some IT worker in the government made a template .doc document that's widely used. They exported it with the document noscript "sdf fdsfdsfg". This noscript isn't in the actual printed document but it's in the metadata. If you Google that string in quotes you'll find tons of official documents with that noscript.
