Survey: Considering Netbooks for Students?

[Tami Brass]

There's been a ton of buzz the past few months about netbooks. A lot of educators are hoping they'll cause a decrease in the overall price of hardware, but I'm curious how many of us are considering them seriously for school computing - 1:1, on carts, for teachers, etc. I thought I could get a better idea of how other educators see netbooks impacting their programs if I did my own survey.

Hi.
We are looking at netbooks very seriously as well. We are implementing "digital classrooms" next year where students will bring their own laptops. In the next few years what we hope to offer is that those students that do not have a laptop will get a netbook from our school. We are also going to push students to get a netbook per most of what we complete in classrooms netbooks fall into this ability. Many times full laptops are too much for what we need.
