Why One-to-One Computing?The goal of one-to-one computing is for each student to have the technology resources necessary in the 21st century.
One-to-one computing means each student has full-time access to a fully-functioning computer, the Internet, software, and online research materials to work collaboratively anytime and anywhere.

The GoalEducators have long strived to provide a
learning experience that not only reflects but is tailored to the needs and learning styles of individual students.
The goal has been to reduce the distance between the student and knowledge, content and learning, experience and education.
To that end, educational technology has been instrumental in making information available to students just in time, just in the right quantity, and in just the right way.

The Two Positive Votes Conundrum!
![Page 21: Presentation from the Earlham Schools Improvement Committee to the Earlham Community Schools Board October 29 th, 2009 One-to-One Computing for EHS (and.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110304/551a7b7555034643688b54ab/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
How to Proceed?Need a public vote on penny tax for
revenue purpose statement – Not more money, just authorization for Board to have flexibility to decide on how the money is spent
You, the Board, can make the decision on the ISL for five years without a public vote
However, if during public hearings, there is an outcry, the Board could opt to switch, go for the public vote for a ten year plan completely funded by ISL.
![Page 22: Presentation from the Earlham Schools Improvement Committee to the Earlham Community Schools Board October 29 th, 2009 One-to-One Computing for EHS (and.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110304/551a7b7555034643688b54ab/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Committee RecommendationWe plan on a revenue purpose statement
public voteThe School Board decides to:
Fund $100,000 from the SAVE funds reserve (currently stands at about $700,000 and the prospect of new school not so impending – SAVE generates approx. $425,000/yr.)
Fund $130,000 from ISL at 5% rate or $0.71 per $1000
Conduct public hearings as requiredBe prepared to switch strategies if necessary
or if petitioned to hold public vote on ISL; in this case, we recommend asking for a ten-year ISL not to exceed 10%

Policy SettingAn essential aspect to policy is that
it should be constantly evaluated and modified as needed in order to be the most beneficial.
A systematic approach to policy formulation will enable policymakers to establish realistic policies in reasonable time frames.
Central to the process is the goal.
