YOUR Classroom Experience with the Laptop Carts

We're gathering data about whether a laptop initiative makes sense for us. Please share your thoughts about your experiences using the laptop carts with your classes here at Pollard.

Here's what we're looking for:

1. Here's what I tried...

2. Here's how it went...

3. What I/we learned from this experience

Pollard Study Group

The Pollard Study Group is a group of Pollard teachers and administrators that is investigating the potential of piloting a 1-to-1 laptop learning initiative at Pollard. Over the course of the 2007 and 2008 school year we will be conducting an in-depth exploration of the central questions and issues of laptop initiatives and conclude by making a recommendation to the District based on our findings.

Our study will include investigation of the following questions and topics:
• What does a 1:1 laptop environment look like?
• Why is it important?
• Does a 1:1 initiative mesh with our district, school and technology vision, mission and goals?
• How do you plan for a successful program?
• What does professional development look like?
• The implementation and logistics of a successful 1:1 program.
• What does the teaching and learning environment look like and how does it work?
