Netbooks have been great for us! We've been using the ClassmatePC Convertible for the past year, and it was a good move for us. It was an affordable way to expand our 1:1 program and keep the features teachers and students needed in the classroom. For around $700, we were able to provide 3 years of access to a semi-ruggedized, student-friendly tablet w/no-fault warranty, MS Office, and all the other apps kids need for school. If our curriculum wasn't already so tablet-intensive, we could have done it for even less. Of course, I'm not going to complain when curriculum evolves to be technology-dependent if it works well :-)Tami Brasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04574815940113166503noreply@blogger.com
