Student comments from the survey of grades 6-12: “We would like to have one computer per student, possibly a wireless laptop. Software needs to be updated, as well as hardware. Infrastructure should be improved to accommodate these upgrades. Access is vital, with before and after school hours open for use.” “Hire people to keep the computers running, give us more bandwidth and less firewall, enable hookups from home, give the teachers more training and give us more computer classes. We’re also interested in ITV and online classes.” “I would like them to let us kids sign laptops out of the library and there would be enough for everyone in the school. Or they could give us a laptop for the year.” “Students should be allowed to have free access to online tutoring.” Student comments from grades 3-6: “I think that teachers should be required to go to a technology course and extra classes should be available to kids who need help working with computers, want to learn more about technology, or who just want to have fun.” “Teachers could show more videos and web sites to show kids more information in social studies and science.” 20 “I think that students should have laptops to do everything in class. We can type our homework, schoolwork, copy notes and things
like that. We should not have to carry heavy books all day long and bring all of our books home.” “I think that we (schools) could give technology classes to students and teachers because our teachers are falling behind the students, as they aren’t good with computer programs and software.” “I think the teachers could use technology better by learning more about it. I think if they learn more about it they could help the students better and help them do projects and stories.” “I really think that we should go to computer lab more often so that we can learn more about the world around us and what’s going on.” 21
