Check out this story from the Daily Herald in suburban Chicago highlighting an iPad/macBook Air initiative in District 93 in Illinois. Younger students will be receiving iPads, while the older kids will get MacBooks. The district has decided to lease the devices as the technology is changing so rapidly. Hats off to Superintendent Bill Shields for his vision recognizing that it just doesn't make sense to make kids sign up or wait in line for their turn to have access to technology in their schools.
