iPads in Farmington schools

Minnesota 2020 ran a story last week featuring educational use of technology, specifically iPads in the classroom. One benefit cited by Farmington School Superintendent Jay Haugen, “Technology can help students individualize their own learning.” He also points out that they will pay about $100 per year per student out of their capital budget for iPads. It’s about the same amount they currently spend on copying each year.

You can hear from other faculty members at Farmington in the video below:
