[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child just switched from a new school with PBs to an older magnet without them. The only time he says he misses the PB is during indoor recess because he can't watch movies. Money well spent MCPS.[/quote] I agree with your sentiment. My child is at a school with a decent amount of PBs and I think they are ridiculous! I cannot figure out how they really help the learning environment. You are right, they play movies on them during indoor recess. As far as classwork, there is a lot of clicking on this or that icon -- silly at best. Children need more teachers in the classrooms, not more PBs and other technology. Our kids are inundated with technology in their everyday lives. Our MCPS dollars would be better spent on human capital and, dare I say it, more arts and ethics programs. Technology has its place, but I think it is overboard in some classrooms. I'd take a fabulous teacher over a great PB any day.[/quote]
