I'm also bad at geography! I will occasionally quiz myself to keep my mind sharp, and even now I have trouble naming all fifty United States. But still, Russia and China are supposed to be easy. 😅
Now that I've had the chance to reflect on what's going on, I get the feeling that what most of these students actually have trouble with is being asked direct questions in real time. My classes are full of seniors, so hopefully this is the tail end of the cohort that went to high school during the pandemic.
