So here’s how our 1:1 has helped students in our school-
everyone now has a computer no matter their economic circumstances
students have the ability to create all kinds of digital media to express themselves and their ideas
music
webpages
graphics
students have the chance to work on this media outside of school hours (that’s key for me- the school day just isn’t enough time)
students are learning (sometimes the hard way) how to be responsible for both their digital actions and their computers
students are taking part in as well as learning from the participatory web
