I began using #Mastodon recently. Its possibilities are new to me. I learn by tapping on options, researching, playing around & making mistakes.
As an #educator, I'm confronted with why people struggle with grasping the tech they use & lack basic scientific knowledge. It's no mere individual failing but a broader issue rooted in outdated systemic problems.
#Curiosity is learned, it needs stimulation & cultivation. Kudos to all #teachers who understand this & work towards solutions.
