I’ve taught in a public school where each student had a laptop. Trust me when I say that laptops had no measurable effect on learning.

In 5 years, not once did the school district ever provide any data to support the idea that kids were learning more or better because of laptops.

Apple, the provider of the laptops, was thrilled, though.

Expensive toys, especially because they cost about 2X what Windows machines run.

Sister Edward Mary and Father Spink managed to teach me many things..... and all they used was a wooden yardstick. ;>)
