Why did the laptop improve his grades?Posted by cmwillis at May 5, 2007 08:39 AM | TrackBackI sat down with my son and asked him what the difference was. He basically told me it was a couple of things:
* He doesn't have to struggle with a lot of notebooks.
* His notes are no longer full of errors and mistakes and he can read his notes.
* When he is writing he can focus on what he is writing and not get mad at himself because he can't read it and it is full of mistakes.
* He can focus on studying and getting his work done because the things that "drive him crazy about himself" are under control.
Sorry that you think I'm not eloquent! ;-0
Thank you for stopping by. I blog about many things including LD, technology, wikis, blogs, web 2 and the belief that teaching is a noble calling. You're welcome back any time!
