I’ve been waiting for Peter Parker to grow up for decades. Maybe it’s just how his story has been written, with anecdotes such as “with great power comes great responsibility.” It’s a tagline born out of tragedy and the inexperience of youth, and that’s how various incarnations of Spider-Man have often played out.

Back to the books
We have known for years that screen learning offers time for scrolling rather than for reading. Now, according to the editorial “Scandinavia’s U-turn on book reading” (Monitor Weekly, May 11), some countries are willing to switch paths and go back to book learning, though they pioneered the use of ed tech in their classrooms more than 10 years ago. I admire school systems in so many places removing cellphones from the classroom.

Here’s the scoop on love
A big cheer for staff writer Victoria Hoffmann for the last item in the June 22 Monitor Weekly’s Numbers in the News column, which reported on an ice cream truck in Gardner, Massachusetts. When a young boy could not pay for a cone, the business owner gave it to him for free. The idea went viral, with donations to the ice cream truck coming in from around the world. All I could think was that this was the world we all deserve and need.
The power of a humble heart
I love the story of David and Goliath. It so beautifully illustrates the strength of humility and the weakness of pride. Humility gave David victory over Goliath. David understood that God was the source of his strength, and with a humble heart, he battled the proud giant and was victorious. I’ve often looked to this story when I’ve felt like the underdog in a difficult situation.
How US-Saudi deal could encourage other countries to consider nuclear weapons
When Turkey and Egypt began building nuclear power plants with Russian technology over the past decade, the United States asked both countries to commit to never enriching uranium to fuel a nuclear weapon. Both refused. Now, in the wake of the U.S.-Saudi nuclear deal announced July 22, which leaves the door open to Saudi Arabia’s eventual weapons-grade enrichment of uranium, both Turkey and Egypt are likely blessing the day they said “no” to Washington.

Parents turn to AI as their kids weigh college selection
When Melissa Danielli’s oldest child applied to college in 2022, her family worked with a hired college admissions counselor to find schools. For much of the public, artificial intelligence wouldn’t enter their consciousness until the launch of ChatGPT that November. “He was basing a lot of his stuff on, ‘I’ve heard about this school. It’s a good school,’” she remembers of her son. “And we’re just like, ‘sure, apply and if you get in we’ll go visit,’” says the Seattle-area mother.
