OregonLive : With high hopes for test scores, Canby School District invests in iPod touches and iPads

When I was a kid, I had to walk over to the neighbors house to access an Encyclopedia. I bet access like this would have had me operating at a grade or two above what I was at in Elementary school.

OregonLive : With high hopes for test scores, Canby School District invests in iPod touches and iPads:

"In presentations, Morelock has shown that several classrooms using the iPod touches generated better test scores than the district average. He looks at iPod touches and iPads as unparalleled tools that can be used in nearly every class.


'Every kid now has their own dictionary, calculator, graphing calculator, connection to the Internet.'"
