Does anyone know of a map that shows the locations of 1:1 programs in the US? I am mainly interested in Apple programs but a map that had them all could be useful.

Welcome!

Welcome to the 1:1 Learning Environment Ning.

We can use this space to share and develop strategies around 1:1 laptop programs in educational settings. There are many aspects to consider when thinking about starting a 1:1 learning environment, from hardware and software, to developing teacher and student readiness, to creating learning opportunities otherwise not possible.

I hope you can join in the conversation.

Insurance for Laptops 2 Replies

Just wondering what other schools are doing in relation to insurance for laptops. This seems to be a substantial cost in having the laptop program.

As a team we are hoping to make new connections and expand our teaching and learning repertoire using ICT and productive pedagogy.
