Many schools are going to a one-to-one computer to student ratio and the remaining question is: does this technique benefit student learning? According to the article, early studies showed it "showed increased student attendance and motivation, expanded curricular offerings, and a leap in educator technology savvy." However, the programs did not go away, but are becoming more relevant. As I have previously mentioned about prior articles, I think the one-to-one ratio can be beneficial if implemented effectively with relevance to the curriculum.
