Students that attend Robert E. Lee Acadamy in Bishopville, SC are getting encouraged to bring iPods to school, not discouraged. Bauerlien thought that this kind of technology would destroy students learning patterns, cause of the distractions they cause. This could not be farther from the truth in this school. They use iPads in younger classes to keep the kids interested in learning. There is apps on these apple innovations that are specifically designed to help kids learn. So my question is if there is technology out there that has applications that help students learn, why are we discouraged to bring them to school?
Below is a link to the article about the school which is using the apple technology to better learning.
