Laptops in classrooms help students learn |
Posted by: Susan Einhorn |
It turns out more screens might actually be a good thing for kids. A study from Michigan State University found students' learning improved when they were given their own laptop, or similar device. The report was a meta-analysis of studies looking at the effect of these "one-to-one" programs that give an individual device to each student. Students improved learning achievement in science, writing, math, and English. The results were small but noteworthy, especially for schools weighing the costs and benefits of supplying the expensive devices for their students. |
