Homework should be reading, class should be demonstration and practice

You don't just get better at playing the piano by reading about it. Your cardio doesn't increads by reading papers and 45min lecture is not enough for individual work in a 20 pupil glass.

I agree, if you can get a kid to read a book and actually trick them into discovering the world of fiction & non-fiction that they are interested in you have just invested in their future, there has to be no downsides to a kid wanting to read a book in bed at night rather than scroll tiktok.
