Wk 1 Peer Response

Pamela Holifield says: We are using iPads and finally have our campus Wifi throughout the school. Students can use their phones, or any other device on the network. They do have facebook blocked through this connection, as well as other inappropriate sites.
We have access to all Mac programs. We have 5 Mac Labs with 35 Emacs in each lab equipped with external hard drives (if needed). The students have log in accounts in which they can save their work for their classes.
  • Your school seems to be ahead of the game when it comes to integrating new technology. Your district definitely sees the importance of exposing students to the technological resources they’ll end up seeing in their future careers.
  • Curt Isakson says:
    Pamela,
    Can I come and work at your school?
  • Wow! Lucky you, working in a school that is really with it. You would think that all schools would have this type of technology by now. Especially when the government is complaining that there should be more people using technology in the US and yet we do not rank as high as other countries. Which is a real conundrum when the US has Microsoft and Apple. I can’t wait until all students are required to have a computer notebook or iPad to learn from.
