Impact of One to One Programs on Student Achievement: A Review of Studies
Abstract: Many schools today are bringing one to one computer initiatives into the classroom. These initiative are happening but there is not a clear answer as to whether they are helping students achievement. Many studies are short-term and see very little to no improvement through qualitative data Students though overall see a change in themselves with the addition of laptops. Their attitudes and the attitudes of the teachers involved have an impact on student achievement and the success of the program. But concerns about the other elements one to one programs bring to the classroom need to be explored.
