I remember being taught how to use maps in elementary school. Now I can’t help but wonder if that’s taught at all these days.

For what it's worth, I was never taught how to use a paper map but always found it easy to do.

But I definitely agree about over-reliance on GPS is pretty sad. I love the fact that I can just try a different route and see where it takes me. Sure, I sometimes waste 20 minutes doing the opposite direction of what I want, but I also discover new things along the way which is really nice.
