This should be obvious to anyone who has kids or works with kids. But they're all functional illiterates too, and mistake kids' greater determination to fight through the unknown as competence. And they're soaking in a culture that makes them make terrible choices with tech. It's so unfashionable to use a laptop instead of a phone that many are steadfast in their desire to do schoolwork by typing on their phones. Suggest that it'd be faster, easier and more comfortable if they just used a computer and you're a grandpa. I was in a classroom where CAD was being taught and some students kept trying to switch to using OnShape on their phones until they were forced to use the computers.
