My Project
We need a printer in our classroom. In the dynamic world of K–12 education, printing remains crucial amidst technology’s reshaping of classrooms. Printed materials significantly impact student engagement, retention, and creativity, complementing digital resources. Striking a balance between paper and screens optimizes the learning experience. When students have print materials in front of them, they can focus on the task at hand.
Studies have shown that a student performs better with comprehension and retention when documents are presented in print, especially if they are more than one page.
Early elementary-age students particularly benefit from printed materials since these students are learning to read and write for the first time. These students require printed material as opposed to digital. Additionally, a student may become more distracted while working on an assignment via a computer, laptop, or tablet due to text skimming and readily available internet and app access, leading to fragmented learning.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
