If you’re thinking about going 1:1 in your school or district, there are a lot of things to consider. The first among them is the goals you hope to achieve with this initiative and then you’ll probably get into considering which computers to use.

Mobile learning is making its way into K-12 education just as mobile technology is making its way deeper and deeper into our everyday lives and the best way for students to stay connected and be able to learn on the go is with Chromebooks—affordable, portable, and educational laptops for the 21st century.
Every student has different skill sets, different strong points, and, as we all know, also varied weaknesses. Some learn more quickly and might prefer visual lessons, while others require hands-on experience and maybe more than one attempt to master a concept. Luckily, in the 21st century, there is plenty of technology to help close this gap and level the playing field.
Did you know we’ve partnered with some of the best computing brands, like HP, Lenovo, and Samsung to bring educators the best deals around for the current craze of Chromebooks? And, to top it all off, we also accept purchase orders and are willing to take as big of an order as you’d like! If you don’t know, now you know.
The advantages of BYOD initiatives extend for teachers, students and even administrators, who all have the same goal of excelling in a 21st century learning environment. Technology in the classroom opens up a host of options from strengthening distance learning to enhancing student collaboration and the possibilities are only increasing.

Some of the factors that scientifically compose creativity include originality, self-expression, risk taking and collaboration—none of which I see in traditional lecture-giving and note-taking classrooms.
