Canada is libertarian on student cell phones in classrooms and statist on school choice (in most provinces).

We get a poor return on investment when it comes to education in Canada. Our math and reading scores are several years behind (even before Covid). Students are distracted by over 100 messages on their cellphones each day. And teachers cannot control their own classrooms.

We can do better, and Paige MacPherson shows how to do it.

AI summary:

In this episode of 'Concepts,' host Shawn Whatley discusses the significant impacts of smartphones and digital devices on student performance in schools with Paige MacPherson, the Associate Director of Education Policy at the Fraser Institute. They delve into the evidence showing declines in math and reading scores, changes in classroom environments due to digital distractions, and the need for policies banning smartphones in schools. The conversation also spans broader issues such as education quality, the importance of school choice, and insights into the Conservative movement in Canada. Paige shares her expertise on education policy and provides solutions for improving the quality of public education while stressing the differing educational needs of boys and girls. This compelling discussion is a must-watch for parents, educators, and policymakers aiming to understand and navigate the complexities of modern education.
