I picked my daughter up from school today and she reminded me I had to be at school Thursday after school to sign papers and pay $50 for a surface tablet. She goes on to tell me it is basically an iPad. Perry County is providing these to students in grades 8-12. WOW!!!!
This is awesome news! When I went to M.C. Napier in the 80's we still had manual typewriters!!!! My daughter asked me ..."what's a type writer?"
It is amazing what technology is now available to us as educators and students. I do have to admit I am in favor of learning in a classroom the old fashioned way when it comes to math, reading and science. I know a few people who are getting their education degrees and most all their work was online. That is scary to me. Maybe I am just old-school???? What do you think?
