[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I"m surprised that my older elementary aged kids got Surface tablets from school rather than laptops. The devices are relatively small, which means the screens are small, which is not going to be great for 4 hours of Zoom a day.[/quote] Are you complaining about a free device??[/quote] Uh, it's not a toy and it's not a gift. It's the means through which her kids are going to be going to school this year. It's reasonable to question whether it will be adequate. A small screen could definitely make it hard, especially for an older elementary kid who will be doing a lot of math. I might also worry that a small device could be hard on their eyes or bad for posture (hunching over to look at the screen). It's like being concerned that your kid can't see the board from their seat in the classroom, or that the school doesn't have safe P.E. equipment. It's a normal concern.[/quote] Your privilege is showing.[/quote]
