Do you want to be a creator?
Everyday, teachers see students mindlessly scrolling TikTok…
Watching video games… (Evidently, watching video games is preferred to actually playing them.)
Texting someone who is sitting right next to them…
In short they are hyper-consumers of content.
Then they say they forgot to do their homework… with a thousand dollar computer in the palm of their hand?
It’s the 21st century!
Let’s encourage students to be creators of content. And I’m not talking about duck-face selfies with enhancements. Bona fide engaging content.
Designing a life isn’t always easy. But in the end, it’ll be more satisfying than watching someone else’s.
