Once, I had to teach a course on #robots in medicine, society, and the arts to high school students. A prof there told me, triumphantly: we have iPads! And I replied that I needed just #blackboards, #paper, and #pencils. During each lesson, I gave students 30 minutes to solve a problem I posed to them, writing on a #piece of paper. Then, I showed how that problem had been solved with tech, and why.
Also in the latest years, with the boom of #genAI, I kept asking students (at the University) to #write by #hand.
