At a time when most schools are encouraging\/enforcing iPads or tablets for students from Grades 3 and up, a school in Sydney is taking a stand.<\/p>\n

Making the decision to move back to pen and paper, as they consider it a ‘better way of learning’, Kris Fade<\/a> put the question to parents, students, teachers and residents this morning on the Kris Fade Show.<\/p>\n

Dubai ‘have we gone too fast when it comes to digital homework and schooling’?<\/h3>\n

A dad of two himself, Kris in the midst of dealing with tablets to get homework done, and despite being considerably tech-savvy, he believes the old school way of getting homework done is the way forward, and he’s not alone.<\/p>\n

Should we stick with tablets or go back to textbooks…<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The show received thousands of calls and judging from the comments on the ‘gram post<\/a> – the tide is overwhelmingly inclined to stick to old school learning methods<\/h3>\n

This is incredible considering top schools are vying to be ahead in terms of technology, but comments reveal many would rather revert to the old-school.<\/p>\n

Parents who consider themselves tech-savvy still see the benefit of book-learning<\/strong><\/p>\n
