(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); In my opinion, I think they should and shouldn't because we wouldn't want to teach our children to get attached with technology so it corrupts their lives and to depend on phones and what not.

Good way is that, it would be more fascinating, and being a better learning experience for them. They wouldn't get bored, but some older kids would take it for granted using it for their own fun ways. We have laptops at our school, so eh I don't know.

What do you guys think?

It would be cheaper in the long run because, your wouldn't have to keep buying textbooks, but you would have to buy cases for every tablet since they will be dropped about every 10 seconds, you will have kids trying to steal them, and like you said, they still aren't going to be focusing on reading. They will be trying to use them for fun.


Nice made up number and devices that come from a school are generally locked down. Goodluck having fun with that.

Sure why not, if the school can make a one off purchase of some cheap shitty tablets and then get all the textbooks they need as E-books then it makes sense as it would save money in the longterm and you would no longer need to purchase a whole load of new books as the syllabus changes making old books redundant. Also better for the environment, you might have saved a branch of a tree.

Not always, depends if the trees came from a sustainable area where they plant x for every y they cut down.

Pretty sure a tree can be replanted, doesn't really matter where.. It's not like ripping gold out of the ground to be used for electronics.

I would say they could but in moderation like if writing a paper or project or something but not like just give them one and let have at it.

Of course a tree can be replanted, but it also takes time for those trees to reach maturity again and someone has to ensure that for every tree that is felled at least another 2 replace it. It does somewhat matter where too, but only to the extent that tearing up trees and not replacing them can make areas more susceptible to flooding or landslides if the area is on an incline.
