When Home Internet Means A Smartphone, Can A Kid Succeed At School? : All Tech Consider... - 2 views

  •  
    good article on current internet access for needy families and the effects on school.

    Good article. I had spent some time working as volunteer at a Title 1 school and they had iPads in most of the classes. I thought it was interesting that in a school that has kids from low income families that a lot of the schoolwork was done with technology, considering that many of them have the same struggles as mentioned in this article.

      This is cool. It's like traveling in the classroom. This could be neat to do when reading a novel or something set outisde the United States to get some background information. Learn about the country by "traveling" there together as a class. I like that idea..
