There are two GREAT educational technology conferences held each summer which focus on laptops in education. Although one of my all-time favorite conferences is ISTE (previously known as NECC), these two conferences are unique because of their focus on ubiquitous learning. I encourage you to consider attending either or both of these events this summer. They absolutely will be worth your time, and I hope to see you there!…
In a "CDL Progress Report" (Consortium for Digital Learning) that was published as the result of research in Alaska, Dr. Jason Ohler presented positive information about the effects of a laptop program on both students and teachers. You can download the report and other information from the website below.
