The Department of Education has announced that by 2015 they would like to provide every public school student either a laptop or a computer tablet in an effort to modernize instruction. They have asked the state for $42 million over the next two year to help standardize curricula and modernize classroom instruction. The DOE would then lease 60,000 laptops and computer tablets for three year periods, which would require additional funding from the state. The plan is that children in kindergarten through eighth grade would get tablets while high schoolers would receive laptops.
