[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The title of the blog post is: "Breaking News: Teachers Demand 2,000 Promethean Boards"
Yet, when you read the memo and Gazette article cited [url]http://www.gazette.net/article/20120906/NEWS/709069850/1022/-145-million-technology-plan-proposed-for-montgomery-schools&template=gazette[/url] there is no mention of teachers making any such demand.  I guess this is the author's sarcasm?  I just find it misleading.

I get that the author does not like Promethean Boards, but why?  Does she think the money the county is spending would be better spent elsewhere?  If so, where?  Can MCPS use the FCC grant for some other form of technology she thinks is more useful?

I'm not saying I'm a fan of smart boards. Personally, I think this generation of smart boards are not very good.  In the age of iPad, the smart boards seem clunky and not much better than a camera projector.

I just don't understand why MCPC presents issues in the manner they do.
