[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]19:09. I think technology in the classroom can be a great tool and I hope that whatever school DC goes to, technology will be used.  [b]Just find it hard to believe that computer use in every class is a good or appropriate.

For my kid with fine motor and handwriting issues, the sooner he gets to type everything on a computer the better so computer use in every class except for math is appropriate.  DCI is actually made for a kid like mine so it's too bad we're moving out of the area.  He'll be attending private school for middle and beyond, and we will only look at schools that accommodate laptops and minimal handwriting as recommended by the neuropsychologist.

Why not math?  There are lots of great ways to use a computer or a tablet in a MS/HS math class.[/quote]
