With the whole world moving in the direction of
everything digital, kids are missing out on the chance to
learn how to use analog clocks. The problem is, plain and
simple, the modernization of the world is making it
harder for kids to learn analog, simply because the
digital is right at their fingertips.
United States schools are taking analog clocks down and
replacing them with digital, like teachers in the United
Kingdom have already done, because students are
getting distracted by them. They are spending too much
time trying to figure out how much longer they have until
class is over or worrying that they don’t have enough
time to finish an exam, which is making it hard for them
to concentrate on what they are doing. This alone is
causing many students to struggle academically, because
of the lack of ability to concentrate on school work, since
they can’t figure out how much time they have left to
finish assignments or exams.
because they knew how to properly use them. It is no
longer a useful art, as digital clocks are just more popular.

Kids back in the day could read the analog clocks

because they knew how to properly use them. It is no

onger a useful art, as digital clocks are just more popular

now. Kids are overly exposed to the digital world now

days and that makes it harder to teach them how to read

an analog clock. Even if you have an analog clock, there

always seems to be a digital option within reach which

will provide a quicker answer of “what time is it?”

Sadly, it’s not just the younger children that are having

trouble telling time, even the ability of high school aged

kids able to tell time on an analog clock has decreased

ver the years. Students are complaining about having

trouble keeping track of how much time they have left

when taking an exam or are rushing through their exams

to make sure they don’t run out of time because of their

lack of ability to tell time on an analog clock

Time management has become a big issue in schools

due to the fact that analog clocks cannot be properly

read by students. The use of digital clocks are allowed in

order to help students improve their academic

performance. Allowing digital clocks in schools was

something that was uo t nra relaxed during

that was done to benefit the students learning

ability and help them to be more relaxed during exams

and other timed assignments. Teachers also benefit from

it, because they are receiving the students full attention

as opposed to students looking at the clock all the time

trying to figure it out
