Analogue clocks are a great example of kids having to understand a concept and apply it. And it's simple enough that anyone can learn it.

I often see examples where children are required to memorize a set solution, instead of showing understanding and reaching the solutions themselves.

These clocks are somewhat dated, but removing them just feels like another symptom of a failing educational system.

Analog clocks are dated? Let's get rid of books because we have kindles. Just something was invented a very long time ago doesn't make it obsolete by any means. Or should we get rid of spoons or hammers? Those things are really somewhat dated.

I have to say, I'm quite fond of my pneumatic hammer. When will my pneumatic silverware become a thing?

I just can't be bothered to expend any energy while I'm eating! It's supposed to give me energy, after all!

pneumatic silverware

🤣 awesome. I'd love to see that. Reminds me of a video where a guy tried to eat corncob by mounting it on a drill. IIRC he lot some teeth doing that "stunt".
