You are right I’m not from the States. However, my rather quick and shallow search has shown me that in the USA too, it should be taught in first year math classes how to draw and read analog clocks and in second year the concept of 24 hour days, AM and PM should be taught.
Broken clock is right twice a day, but there’s a reason we don’t use them to tell time
A side note, analogue clocks are still in schools, lol.
I mean, they’re used everywhere still and aren’t exactly a dated form of timekeeping or anything even if digital clocks are preferred on computers
The newer generation might not know how to read them.
Could it be, that they are in school to learn stuff?
Not how to read analogue clocks lol.
Analogue clocks are a much better tool to visualise time than digital. There’s only advantages in learning to read them.
My 6 year old learned in school this year, he had homework about it and everything
I was just speculating whether that will be taught in the future. Kudos
Mate, they do. Part of math classes in the first or second year. Source: I’m a teacher.
Since you said mate, I assume you don’t live in America. Some of these kids can’t even read. I asked the teachers.

I’ve been saying this a lot recently, but a calcucan sometimes be a clock.
