    When the regular school day ends at Maryland's Springbrook High School, the fun begins in earnest for girls who are part of an after-school club that focuses on game programming.

    I really thought this article was interesting because it relates to the video, Fair Play: Achieving Gender Equity in the Digital Age.

iPads in the Classroom are Changing the Face of Education | Mac|Life - 0 views

  • In the Auburn School District, administrators are using the iPad in controlled areas to prove its efficacy in raising literacy rates and teaching mathematical skills.
  • In the study, half of the 16 kindergarten classrooms were randomly assigned iPads to use for nine weeks, and they showed increased improvement results over the non-iPad classrooms

    This article is about integrating ipads into the classroom.I found this article to be very interesting because Fairfield County is wanting to adopt ipads in their school district, and I wont lie I was very hesitant on that idea, but after reading this and seeing the extensive studies that have been done, I think it could be very beneficial.
