    “We must prevent students from searching for information on the Internet themselves,” says the Liberal minister, for example.

    Really weird thing when out of context, btw, perhaps translates poorly, idk?

      I guess they are worried about fake news and conspiracy theories when children don’t have the critical thinking required to identify them.

        I mean that is something they should focus on; improving the quality of the searches, instead of pretending they can just stop it.

        I’m Nordic and us not doing so well last time in Pisa isn’t due to kids using technology, in my opinion.

      Searching for informations by themselves maybe ?
      There is also a difference between searching within a textbook, where the teacher knows what the student will find, and searching the internet, where well… we have been complaining about the enshitification enough.
      Also I support not letting the kids run free on the internet before they have aquired a bit of media litteracy.
      Now that I think about it, a search engine for school could be a cool thing. Tricky but cool.
