Big Surprise! ("E" Posting)

I was observing in a high school English class two weeks ago and discovered something amazing. I walked in and the few students who were already there were on laptops. My first thought was, where did they get laptops? As I walked further into the room I realized that there was a huge loading dock for a class set of Dell laptops. I thought it was incredible that the students had access to such high-tech technology. They were working on projects in groups on MovieMaker, but each student had his/her own laptop to do their share of the work. If all schools had tools like these in every classroom, I think the educational system would be a lot different (positively)!
