IT classes have become mandatory in North Korean schools as part of modern education. However, students’ participation levels vary depending on whether they own computers or not, leading to frustration and loss of focus in classes.
Parents feel guilty for not being able to afford computers for their children, creating inequality and discomfort among students in schools.
In Hyesan, Yanggang Province, parents struggle to buy computers due to financial constraints, impacting their children’s learning experience.
Overall, the lack of access to computers in North Korean schools is hindering students’ education and causing frustration among parents. The government is urged to address this issue promptly to improve the quality of education.
