Schools Remove Analog Clocks Because Kids Can’t Read Them

In London, schools are removing analog clocks from classrooms because students are unable to read the time. The teachers union says children are so used to using digital devices that they aren’t familiar with analog clocks. The decision was made to remove them after it was determined that they caused “unnecessary stress” during exams.

 

But it looks like we are having the same problem here in the U.S.
