I find the shift in your attitude to be very interesting. I was very impressed with your capstone project and have been following your blog since you went to college. It sounds like you are doing really well. SXSW Wow! I am currently working in a school in which students do not bring laptops to class. I know that many schools are becoming "one-to-one" laptop schools. I have mixed feelings about the benefits of becoming a one-to-one school. As you point out, I think the face to face interactions and discussions are the most important part of the school day. There are times when students need to be in front of a screen during the day, but for the most part, a lot of the tech stuff can be done at home. What do you think? Kabren,
