About this listen
In this episode of Classical Et Cetera, we take a hard look at the role of technology in education—especially in classrooms committed to classical learning. Should students be using AI to write papers? Does screen time impact a child's ability to read, reason, and remember? And how do schools draw the line between helpful tools and harmful shortcuts?
From calculators to ChatGPT, the conversation covers the real effects of tech in schools, how it shapes student thinking, and why some classical educators are going “back to the books.” Whether you're a parent, teacher, or student, this episode challenges the idea that more technology always means better learning.
