As a graduate school professor, I recommend: good books and articles and oral lecture material; graded regular short writing assignments to internally process the reading and share with peers; and facilitated extensive class discussion for oral processing (in person or online).

"The only app or device found to meaningfully improve results with any consistency is an overhead projector in the hands of a competent human teacher." This article is such a fine, data-supported, rant that I'm going to quote several pieces of it: americanaffairsjournal.org/2019/08/rotten

I agree with this article. As a parent of a 9th, 6th, and 4th grader, I recommend: Minimal screen-time for kids. Instead: books, interaction with peers through activities (*local* sports, Scouts, church, music, drama, art), and playing with friends and neighbors.

“Teenagers today are more likely to be at home [on screens] … Yet at the same time, they are more likely to feel isolated and unhappy. Twenge writes, ‘The number of teens who get together with their friends nearly every day dropped by more than 40 percent from 2000 to 2015.'”

“We wanted our children to spend their time playing outside. And reading books. And talking with us. So we never bought them phones. They kept getting older, and we kept not buying them phones.” @TheAtlantic theatlantic.com/family/archive
