On Memorial Day, honor those who served & sacrificed their lives. Their missions often depended on multilingual communication & global cooperation. Language saves lives. Let’s honor their legacy by promoting language education in our schools. Multilingualism builds bridges!

Low test scores aren’t instructional—they’re biological.
The key to mastering literacy & math isn’t more drills, but a structural “brain upgrade” via language learning.

🚨Tuskegee: The 40-Year Experiment On Black Americans🧫🔬

[matrixbot @thematrixb0t]

This teacher-turned-cognitive scientist shared a disturbing reality that left the room stunned.

“Our kids are LESS cognitively capable than we were at their age.”

Every previous generation outperformed its parents since we began recording in the late 1800s.

So, what happened?

Screens.

Dr. Jared Horvath explained:

“Gen Z is the first generation in modern history to underperform us on basically every cognitive measure we have, from basic attention to memory, to literacy, to numeracy, to executive functioning, to EVEN GENERAL IQ, even though they go to more school than we did.”

“So why? … The answer appears to be the tools we are using within schools to drive that learning (screens).”

“If you look at the data, once countries adopt digital technology widely in schools, performance goes down significantly, to the point where kids who use computers about five hours per day in school for learning purposes will score over two-thirds of a standard deviation LESS than kids who rarely or never touch tech at school. And that’s across 80 countries.”

But screens aren’t just decimating learning and making new generations less intelligent than the ones before them.
