Research Shows:
Laptop students show greater evidence of applying higher-order-thinking skills.
Laptop students more readily engage in problem solving and critical thinking.
Laptops increase access to information and improve research and analysis skills.
Laptop teachers lecture less, consult with students more, and facilitate more student-centered learning .
