Description

As AI tools enter classrooms, educators worry they may erode critical thinking, prompting legal action in Florida. Meanwhile, schools are banning phones to reduce distractions and boost focus, with some seeing improved engagement. But experts say the decline stems from a mix of pandemic fallout, attendance issues, and a generation wired for digital distraction—forcing schools to question whether current standards still fit today’s learners.
