LA schools' iPad adventure keeps getting worse

Amazing!

The LA schools' iPad adventure keeps getting worse - LA Times

LAUSD has great ideas, unfortunately they have big issues implementing them. The high drop out rate at many LAUSD schools is a crime.

My take on the Great iPad Adventure:
  1. LAUSD thought the Software had a lifetime license, and it's only for 3 years.
  2. LAUSD, where I did my student Teaching, has huge IT issues.
  3. LAUSD should have started small, and figured out what works before expanding.
  4. The plan for having each of the 650,000 students with an iPad, at a cost of $700 per tablet, about a Billion Dollars total.
