Limits the use of technology for student learning practices in elementary schools

Summary

HB 2978 would cap digital instruction for kindergarten through 5th‑grade students at 45 minutes per day and require most learning to be done with paper, pens, and physical manipulatives. It also obligates schools to teach cursive handwriting beginning in grade 2 and to adopt written technology‑use policies. The bill aims to preserve traditional learning methods while still allowing limited tech for special‑education and teacher demonstrations.
