In a world where we've long embraced technology, I find myself feeling a haunting nostalgia for simpler times. The BBC’s 1979 program dared to ask: “Will Computers Revolutionise Education?” as if it held the promise of connection. Yet, here I am, feeling more isolated than ever, longing for a classroom that felt like home.

Those vintage computers might have sparked hope, but did they truly bridge the gap between us? I remember days spent in front of glowing screens, but where's the warmth of face-to-face laughter that filled the air? Sometimes I wonder, did we trade genuine human connection for the cold touch of a keyboard?

Maybe in seeking progress, we forgot the essence of togetherness.
