We are facing a time of amazing decision making potential in Maine. Adopt 1 to 1 laptop computing statewide and the transformation that is needed to make the initiatives work, or retreat in the face of another status quo grab and hold.
" its the death of education, but the dawn of learning and that makes me very happy" - Steven Hepple
Data to support Dr. Hepple and 1 to 1 learning environments are within a JTLA article (Weston & Bain 2010).
Now is the time for powerful leadership from teachers, students, community members, and visionary administrators. Maine has a gift in visionary programing like MLTI that can make learning communities that matter in the 21st century.
