[quote=Anonymous]The trouble for us started when our private school announced each child going forward would have their own iPad - from grade 2. It was awful. We had to change schools after a few years because the kids wouldn't want to do anything else after school. It was like detox every night. My sister's kids - who go to public schools in Cupertino - definitely have very little computer time at school and homework is still done by hand. In high school, essays and what not are typed but all other subjects are handwritten. Not sure what the rush is to make kids "tech literate" when Bill Gates and Steve Jobs didn't have the internet in school. [/quote]
