I’m been on the education side of IT for 25 years. All the Ph.D.’s in “education” are some of the most clueless users ever. Teachers are a little better, but not much. You would think that the younger ones, who I know have had access to computers for years would know stuff....NOPE

I've worked IT in multiple industries but recently left 10 years in medical. I was consistently shocked how inept doctors are with IT, and the young are worse than the old. They went through a four year degree and med school and they don't even seem to be able to use a word processor competently. I don't expect them to be programmers, but didn't they have to write a paper or something somewhere along the line to becoming a physician?

#25 I had a cousin whose husband taught computer science at a university. I read online student reviews of his teaching and they said an easy class as he taught from the book and the exam questions were from there as well. He did not elaborate outside the books.
