      I think it's going a bit far to say this. 
  • When classrooms adopt iPads or other tablets in lower grades amongst younger students, the possibility that those students will be left behind in terms of the greater society decreases dramatically
  • If low-income students are unlucky enough to attend schools which can’t fund technology purchases, the chance that they’ll find a way out of a low income life becomes less likely.

  • If a student graduates high school without at least a rudimentary and working knowledge of new technologies, their future starts looking a lot less bright.
  • But increasingly, even menial entry level jobs require much more computer literacy than what some disadvantaged students are getting in schools.

    This looks like a really good and cross-platform program for doing audio editing (for example, for podcasts). Looks better than Audacity, although maybe more complicated too.
