[QUOTE="Andy, post: 189415, member: 5096"] I hate the fact that our society wants instant computerization in all aspects of life. I think that 6th, 7th, and 8th graders need the time to learn how to use a library before searching for materials on the internet. Their research should be via the library. A computer lab should be used for in classroom learning. - No home work in that area because not everyone has a computer. I don't think schools should be requiring one - they should also not be "borrowing" them out either. Computers are so expensive - if parents wanted to spend money on one, they would have bought one. Kids can be taught computer skills without having one at home - that is what computer labs are for. [/QUOTE]
