#subtoot, but I just read a well-intentioned toot from a FOSS technical brand account that said,
Education in 2025 is all about leveraging the right digital tools to enhance learning and teaching experiences.
And that just makes me so very sad.
Like... get a freaking book, the more philosophical and weird the better, go make a little picnic, read your book, and think big, complex thoughts about life.
THAT is PEDAGOGY.
Not using the latest technical geegaw that will be utterly forgotten in five years.
