On the Beat in Bluffton

Have computer, will travel

Staff from the Bluffton-Harrison school district want to distribute personal computing devices, such as laptops, to each student as part of a technology initiative known as "1:1 technology implementation." To learn how others have distributed computers — and learn what devices are available — staff will soon travel to different schools that have implemented similar initiatives and the Apple Chicago headquarters.
