In a dream I had last night, I was in a classroom full of students who each had multiple phones they were looking at all the time. I asked them a question about Christopher Columbus, and one of them responded seconds later with a detailed answer she read from one of her phones. I shouted to all the students, "Put your phones down!" They all looked up at me while they laid their phones on the tables in front of them. "I'm sorry I shouted," I said. "But when I ask you a question like that, I want to know what you know, not what is known, about whatever I'm asking." (Andrew Shields, #111Words, 10 November 2025)
