Re: 1 to 1 Computing -- Seeking Input
Personally, if the school district had the money to buy kids laptops and stuff, I would much rather invest in better textbooks and teachers. Now, personally, as a student, I find the whole teacher student relationship to be a fundamental aspect of education. I never was for the whole "online courses" thing. Now, I am in favor of ebook readers such as the Kindle. Now consider the fact that the average textbook is $100-$200, if one Kindle costs $140, it can potentially store thousands of books. Most ebooks are available at a reduced price too. I use a kindle and I love it. The battery life is literally a month.
