What's a current or growing trend only you seem to have concerns about? - Lemmy
I’ve definitely turned into the paranoid nutcase within my friend group in
recent years, I hate that everything is “smart” nowadays requiring an
app/internet connection & account, just to do basic things that didn’t require
any of that before. What’s some things currently making you ramble like an old
man?
Lack of computer literacy. When I was in school, we had computer classes that taught us how to use Word, Excel, even Photoshop and Illustrator, etc. And also things like proper netiquette. It seems like students nowadays are just expected to have computer literacy, and it’s either not being taught anymore or is being taught in a severely diminished way. I’m extremely concerned by the number of younger students who don’t know how to use Excel (or, frankly, anything that’s not a social media website/app). Likewise, I believe the fact that young people are no longer taught to be wary of privacy on the internet (and are in fact encouraged to share their personal lives on the internet) is an oversight in education that will harm these people, as well as society, in the future
why do you need to know how to use excel if you don’t ever use it?
That’s what you learn when you get a job. How to use the tools.
You do know that Excel is used in every job right?
