Interesting that the default is "10th grade", which puts it out of cognitive reach for 90% of the students that the union supports (k-12) and likely speaks more to the demographics of the highest use case (college)

There has been a fundamental failure by governments and education bureaucrats over many decades to develop digital systems that support teachers and students. Most are just expensive ways of wasting time. My observations: 1. Most high school material is best taught using traditional methods. 2. Schools have been exploited by software companies to condition students to use their products. 3. Student engagement improves 1000% when technology is removed. 4. Schools which ban mobile phones then encourage the use of laptops with virtually unrestricted internet access are kidding themselves.
