Why do schools abandon 1:1 efforts? • “a distraction to the education process” • “did not fit into lesson plans” • “abused by students” • “students rarely or never used their laptops for learning” • “son...used his laptop to become a master at the Super Mario Brothers video game” • “more effort…on repairing the laptops than on training the teachers to teach with them” • “math is for the most part still a paper-and-pencil activity” • “it’s cost prohibitive” • Expert says “schools…might be giving up too soon”
