Instead of complaining here, complain to the school board. If they don't hear from you, they'll continue to buy iPads for the students and the kids will continue to learn nothing.

They'll continue to do that no matter how much complaining a few informed parents do; this is increasingly standard practice throughout the country due to the privatization of public education.

I'm a preschool teacher. Our kids don't get iPads but they want us, the teachers, to use them to constantly assess the kids and take notes on them throughout the day. I refuse.

Agreed. Teachers and parents have been complaining that the chrome books given to middle school students with unlimited and unfettered download access is a problem. Good luck getting them to listen about little kids and iPads. The kids are downloading this crap at school. The school board and the school system administration are not listening. It is like they think they are playing a game of Chicken. I think nothing will happen [b]until a couple of parents band together to start a class action suit[/b]. Then all of a sudden there will be a great rush of activity to solve the problem. [/quote]

Maybe that's what we should do then. It's one thing for them to use the technology at school, but another to download all this inappropriate crap on them and have the schools not take responsibility for it.
