The Good, The Bad and the Ugly – 6th grade 1-1 netbook program.
The question: What is the value of 1-1 netbooking and is it helping us to implement web 2.0 tools?
We began a 1-1 netbook program with our 6th grade students this year. Our curriculum has clearly changed throughout this process and we decided that there was significant value in researching how our lessons and activities have actually changed with the introduction of our netbooks. We didn’t want to just change what we are doing but rather increase the value added for our boy’s learning experiences. Not all pieces have gone smoothly and have hit many “bumbs” in the road.
