@jplebreton @cypnk they (and these are like... kids from low median income families) are also not aware that you can have more than one application open at one time

@darius @cypnk Yeah, I think the default new user experience of computers now is being "trained" on a very narrow application (office work, point of sale, whatever) and being almost actively discouraged from playing around. It's so grim! And yeah I suspect lots of educational institutions go in assuming people have skills that they wouldn't be taught anywhere other than those institutions. It's one of the rare areas I think where new software could fill a huge gap.
