i think f someone is doing what he/she likes & being Passionate about won't feel bored even after a long time- might feel tired & need rest but not bored, for kids they need to learn the basics of things that r important n life even f they won't like them all nor b passionate about them all but still they r important & needs to learn them so it's gonna b gradual 1st n an attractive way then it gets more serious each year they grow, at university/college/polytech they will pick what they like what they r passionate about & that won't b boring for them no matter what, last thing it's totally normal for each generation to differ from the previous one including n teaching ways, that's how human-being developed through 10s of thousands of years, f each generation lived & learned as the previous one we wouldn't develop the way we developed & wouldn't use the useful techs we r using n all different fields, ur life/way of thinking/way of learning n schools differ even from ur grandfather who didn't use tabs or laptops instead used books & notebooks let alone ur ancestors who lived hundreds & thousands of years ago, so it's normal & no harm, even those kids will grow up & their kids learning n a total different way with god-knows what techs.
