| Abstract: | The article discusses the frustrations of middle school teachers at Trinity Area School District who observed a decline in students' ability to engage. Topics include passive learning, where teachers noticed that students struggled to apply conceptual knowledge to real-world contexts; technology in education, where the increased reliance on tech tools during the pandemic inadvertently led to students' dependence on technology; and reforming teaching practices. |
