The k-5 point is a good one. The company I work for and my thinking is focused on older students, in the 7-12 range mostly. But I'd think the fragility of the ipad would be an even bigger downside in that age group.
- tedmiston 10y agoIt's definitely a concern. So far they have just bought very heavy duty cases and I don't think the young students are allowed to transport them. Somewhat surprisingly, I don't believe they've had any broken screens either out of hundreds of iPads (one per child). What's even crazier is that many of these kids have learned how to use an iPad, gestures, games, etc before they can even read or write.
