Don't waste money on hardware that will quickly become outdated or dubious learning software peddled by opportunistic vendors. Instead, build a 21st century information infrastructure that gives teachers real-time feedback on how students are progressing in and out of the classroom — not just on standardized tests, but also a whole range of health, social and developmental outcomes.
