Absolute and utter rubbish. Now go to the first high street shop with watches and try again.

Your point is?
Maps can be easy replace with a GPS. Ability to read maps is still (and should be) on the curriculum.
Calculator has replaced the need to add, multiply and divide, yet we still ask children to learn these skills.
Go figure

Snopes article about this from 2018 stating it’s mostly false.
Well who would ever disagree with a Snopes article

Not the one widely used, but they do know how to use the clock. And they're not really that much more used than digital clocks. Therefore, it doesn't matter

What makes people who didn't learn to read analog clocks idiots?
Wrong question. The correct would be: what make people who are too lazy or too stupid to learn the clock idiots - but that would be a rhetorical one.
it's just stupid af to judge people's intelligence based on an unrelated life skill.
Intelligence is an ability to obtain knowledge and skills. If someone lacks both, it is a strong indication of them not having enough intelligence to obtain them.
who are too lazy or too stupid
They do know how to read the clock (digital ones
) Again, it doesn't make them idiots or lazy for not learning something they don't really need to learnIntelligence is an ability to obtain knowledge and skills. If someone lacks both, it is a strong indication of them not having enough intelligence to obtain them.
What makes you think they don't have the ability to learn how to read analog clocks just because they don't? You might not know how ride a horse, but that doesn't mean you can't learn how to. Are you an idiot for not learning how to?

Would it matter to you if they didn't know how to add and multiply without calculator?
It would cuz there's no better alternative. But analog clocks do have an alternative ........ Digital clocks

How did the seconds end up with three digits?
He never learned the clock.

Mostly misogynistic right wingers but I don’t know any on this site.

I guess spelling didn't matter to you either?
no better alternative
Calculator is an alternative to the mental arithmetic sweetie. Yes we still want kids to know that 2 times 2 is four without using a calculator. Go figure why.

Digital clocks exist there too

Cuz the mind is quicker with smaller calculations than a calculator.
But analog clocks are harder to comprehend than digital ones

They also know how to use calculator, they just don't knot 2 times 2 is four without it. Neither have place during an exam.
What makes you think they don't have the ability to learn how to read analog clocks
Because if they did, they would have done during lessons to learn it, sweetie

Do you see the difference between "exist" and "widely spread" or you are one of these unable to learn how to use the clock?
Cuz
A what?
But analog clocks are harder to comprehend than digital ones
Yes, that's precisely my point. People who are unable to understand analog clocks are also likely to not be able to understand any exams.
It is simple really - if you are unable to do 2 x 2 without calculator or read half past three from the analog clock, you better stick to being a bricklayer or serving burgers rather than doing exams. There is no "entitlement" to do exams.

Pointing out spelling mistakes is lame af. Yup it totally doesnt. Who cares lmfao
Calculator is an alternative to the mental arithmetic sweetie
And there's no alternative which allows you to use it without any required prior knowledge on how to use it. And therefore we use the calculator as an alternative for larger calculations.
Yes we still want kids to know that 2 times 2 is four without using a calculator. Go figure why.
Because like I said, the mind is faster with smaller calculations. And, like I said, digital clocks are more convenient alternative to analog ones.

Thanks for calling me a sweetie. Love u too. Forgetting is a thing. Unlike previous generations they are not as much exposed to analog ones. Therefore they don't need to. Digital clocks are used in electronic devices etc.
They also know how to use calculator, they just don't knot 2 times 2 is four without it. Neither have place during an exam
Except basic math is necessary since the brain is faster with smaller calculations and analog clock really isn't that much necessary anymore. They can be replaced.

Yeah.... I can see why YOU are arguing clocks are too difficult

Now read again. Slowly.
Actually, you are the best argument why understanding the clock should be a requirement.

Nope. They don't doesn't mean they can't learn how to. They won't be able to understand exams only if they can't learn how to.
You're basically repeating all the points I've already addressed.

Never said that. I said they're harder to comprehend than digital ones. I do know how to read an analog clock. But it doesn't matter these days. Also, correcting spelling mistakes online is the corniest thing some1 can do.

Perhaps you'd want to do that. Or do u lack reading comprehension?

Since they didn't despite being taught, it means exactly this sweetie.
Let me guess, you have never managed to learn the clock, have you?
