Many of my students do not have access to laptops of their own; many cannot afford them. Access to computers at our high school is limited, which impedes and limits many projects that could be done in our classroom. Every semester, my sophomore's design and execute their own passion projects. These projects require a great deal of research and for many of the products students create technology is essential, if not the house of the product itself. As part of the passion project, they contact experts, make connections in the community, and design and develop a website and blog. If we had guaranteed regular access to laptops, my students could achieve even more. We are a BYOD school, but the truth is many of our students cannot afford their own devices.
