Why I banned laptops |
Posted by: Justina Spencer |
Madeline Twomey's excellent Op-Ed challenges the GW community to think hard about technology and education. Twomey was "appalled" to find that one of her professors banned laptops from discussion sections. As the professor responsible for that decision, I may be able to shed some light on it. I have come to believe that laptops with wireless access can present a major obstacle to learning, especially in small, discussion-oriented classes. |
