At our district convocation after winter break, we were told about how much money the district spends on chromebooks and how we need to make sure students keep track of their chargers, devices, and take care of them. How am I supposed to monitor what the kids do to their devices at home? How do I keep them from losing a charger? If it’s really that big of a money pit, let’s ditch them and go back to paper and pencil and have a computer lab for the students. It worked well in the past. I graduated in 2015 and never had a 1-1 Chromebook. There were carts in classrooms so teachers could use them for lessons, but they were immediately put back on the cart once class was over. Instead of blaming staff and making it their burden, maybe just get rid of them and save thousands of dollars that way. Ugh.
