- lemma_peculiar 1y agowhile it is true that most apps are now designed around being dopamine traps, there are lots of great applications for tablets in a school context. just think about not carrying around books, wasting paper, taking notes. tablets are impactful if, and only if, pupils don't have garbage apps on them
