It is interesting that 91% Gen Z use digital services as educational tools. But what proportion of the total computer use would be educational? I should imagine unproductive time on Tik Tok, Snap Chat and Facebook also needs to be factored in.
I suppose the challenge is to rebalance productive from unproductive.
