It's over. Apple won.

My school paid 8 million for the next 5 years on iPads.
No one uses them.
They ended up firing teachers to save money.

You can call me old-fashion faggot, but, I don't see any REAL benefits by using Tablets or iPads. They're just waste of money

Who needs teachers when you got iPads, right?!

Depressing

The school district that my brothers are currently zoned to have eight ipads for every classroom. That includes Elementary, Middle and High School classrooms. In each classroom they also have eight dell netbooks.

It's just a push from hardware and software publishers to sell more shit. Buy a textbook, you're set for over a decade. Buy a laptop, you'll have to replace the whole damn thing every few years.

When I was in elementary school we had computer lab with OS9 macs and we did absolutely nothing but play with kid pix.

Schools have been wasting money and time on terrible computer education for a long time.

That would explain why my old school's geography department had textbooks with fucking "moonbase by the year 2000" at the back.

So many people pushed iPads so hard to education and got nothing out of it.

It's brilliant. The only places I see iPads used in great numbers are restaurants that use them for taking orders.

Literally this, my old HS had books from 2003 and got the new edition on 2013. They bought 500 History books at $250 each. They were all sitting in the bookroom because no one used them. Kids would just use the online edition if we even got homework assigned.
