Shared and personal laptops in schools

27.10.2009 Comment

Lately it seems like most important axis for school laptops seems to be along personal-shared.

More specifically this means:

1. Personal laptops that are usually given to teachers (and in some cases to pupils) to be carried around and used also at home
2. Shared laptops that are handed out to pupils for a single class and then collected again at the end of the class. Pupils may end up using a different laptop every single time they use them.Lately it seems like most important axis for school laptops seems to be along personal-shared.
