https://jackinabox2906.wordpress.com/2012/03/23/week-9-me-of-all-trades-or-master-of-one

039;It is a miracle that curiosity survives formal education' – Albert Einstein. Week 9: ‘Me-of-all Trades’ or Master Of One?

Behaviour and Learning | Andrew's Science of Education Blog

Science of Education Blog. Just another WordPress.com site. The Idiot Box: Still for Idiots? On March 9, 2012. 8220;The idiot box” is a wonderful term used as slang for a television. In all fairness, it’s certainly an old name, but I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to use it for a blog title, could I? Have you seen this picture of a cat! I've seen a lot of cats in my day, and this is definitely a cat. For example. A lot of research has been conducted into this show, as detailed in this book. It’s ...

My mum would always say that videogames are a waste of time, that I should go out and socialise with other children because you won’t learn anything from a videogame. Can you see where this is going?
