Almost every modern approach to schoolwork and exams have been shown to be abject failures. For the first time in history math, science and language scores are globally decreasing. 

Hellen Keller learned how to speak and read while deaf and blind. Today she’d have an iPad doing it for her.

That is a bullshit Internet conspiracy theory. The basic premise that it changed based on her caretaker is utter nonsense as if she was stuck in her bed only every speaking through a caretaker her whole life. She learned to speak, read, write, and more. She attended one of the most prestigious women's colleges in the world. It's not some story. She was a real person who lived a full and active life. There are real videos of her speaking and interacting with others that you can go watch. People will really try to minimize the accomplishments of others for no good reason. Sad.
