As a teacher of English as a New Language in a special education setting, I provide my students with as much small group instruction as I can. Often that gives some of my them time without direct instruction. Imagine, if this time could be spent on websites such as Newsela, Read Works, I-Ready, and Duolingo. Additionally, for students with learning disabilities typing has been found to be the optimal mode for presenting written work. The keyboards on the Chromebook computers will allow my students to begin to learn the necessary skill of typing with speed and accuracy. This is a 21st-century skill that all students need and one that is hard to learn on a tablet. Overy 90% of my students live in poverty; some families live in one room and struggle for the basics in life. Hence, most of my students do not have a computer or internet at home.
