I think you are the one out of touch. My Boomer parents only need help from me once a year or less with their Ubuntu machines. If they can do it, so can genZ students.

The students aren’t at issue, it’s the teachers. Your parents might as well be tech wizards compared to the the most tech illiterate instructor. Not to mention that the sample size is much larger when looking at a school or district compared to one household.

They can learn. It's not hard.

This is the singular most out of touch comment in the entire thread. The vast majority of them _do not want_ to learn, and "its not hard" is simply false.

It's really not hard. Again, I bring up my boomer parents.

Also, they don't want to learn? Seriously? Since can people get away with not wanting to do their jobs?
