🔴 **Students Need Tech-Free Classrooms**

"_STEM students, in particular, need this lesson. Modern science tends to reduce all human thought to method by modeling it on mathematics. The man to devise this practice was René Descartes, and he invented it while shut up alone in a cabin in winter, stranded without his equipment. He also famously withdrew into himself, in monkish meditation. Are his youngest intellectual heirs in the STEM disciplines ever encouraged to do the same?_"
