Tova Miracle, then an MBA candidate, prepared a description of how to improve instruction for 4,600 students in a cash-strapped K-8 district at Lemon Grove School District in a working class community. The emphasis: innovation, innovation, innovation.
This mantra resulted in one-to-one learning in a wireless classrooms, one of the earliest leaders with this venue.
Although the description is “old” by some standards, it offers useful principles for those who will introduce students to Tablet and other mobile PCs in order to increase learning rates in schools.
Kudos, Miracle, for a useful description.
And, best wishes to those willing to overcome similar challenges for more students.
