Sweden Shifts Back to Traditional Learning Methods

 

Actually, this is about time.  We have not learned how to max our learning skills and this was an experiment and the results are poorer than traditional methods.  The first fix is a return to traditional mathods.

understand hard leartning is also tactile.  We must also use muscle memory.

I also think that we can do better but specific memory tasks do have to be mastered the hard way.  You really have to memorize the time table in order to use it for a lifetime..

Is there better ways?  show me.  I wish t was nnot so hard.

Sweden is making headlines by shifting classrooms back toward books, handwriting, and traditional learning methods after years of heavy screen use. Educators noticed that too much digital dependence was linked to weaker reading comprehension, shorter attention spans, and reduced foundational skills in younger students. Studies have shown that writing by hand and reading on paper can improve memory retention and deeper understanding compared to learning only through screens. This move isn’t about rejecting technology, but about restoring balance so that digital tools support learning rather than replace essential cognitive development. Sweden’s decision is sparking a wider global conversation about how schools can best combine modern innovation with proven traditional methods.
