A note in the margins

Marginalium
My commentary on something from elsewhere on the web.
Are the kids better at all? I complained a lot with fellow teachers that students seem to have taken a real hit in terms of engagement in the last couple of years. Easy to complain about the kids being worse, but this tweeter is collecting examples of where they’re better. Music, sport, and technical specialisation seem to be the common theme. Probably primed, since I used my own poorer engagement anecdote as the lede, but I wonder if this is a trend away from synthesis.
