but seriously this brings a smile to my face. not because its bad for apple and certainly not because its good for google but ANY TIME a large faceless capitalist corporation is struck with pain and anguish is just another day we commoners will live to see the sun. gently caress

ipads are ideal for a hybrid learning approach bc they they dont take up much space and can be used in conjunction w/ the analog learning materials of the students. also theyre vry flexible and can be used to walk around and film/record/photograph which makes them ideal for cool group project stuff. and they fit into the students backpacks together w/ their schoolbooks and poo poo. also when u use a laptop, the screen kinda creates a barrier between the student and the teacher wich is not ideal. look at all these words its like i cared about this

yeah i'm not saying it works equally well for all ages. but its also different when in ur in school and not just loving around at a family dinner i had a conversation w/ a teacher of a tablet class and she said she tells everyone to put the ipads on the table w/ the screens black if she wants everyone to listen also students will always look for distractions and their smartphones are a way bigger issue when it comes to that and; they dont rly gently caress around w/ the ipads when in class

walkman in your pocket with a headphone wire running up your shirt and sleeve and then leaning on that hand to have the earphone in while you were 'writing'

Kids are so bad at typing (even tweens/teens), I say give them all Chromebooks and make them use AIM or something to communicate, in 6 months they'll all be ready for Das Keyboards. Make them earn autocorrect.

Do they still even teach typing in schools or do they just assume kids know now

Lots of teachers really do assume that because kids know how to upload things to fb/Instagram they're tech wizards beyond any kind of computing instruction

the Chromebook is the best device on the market and I'm glad to see someone is recognizing this instead of bowing to the putrid, bloated corpse of cr@pple

plus typing, but that only matters for certain classes. tablet form factor is better for some, but when google is like "here have 1000 free chromebooks" its hard for the school to say no
