美国德克萨斯州一个学区正尝试通过发放数千台iPad弥合学生间在数字领域的认知差距，这将是全美最大规模为学生提供iPad的计划。德州南部的麦卡伦独立学区本周开始发放6800个数码设备，绝大多数是iPad，年幼学生则是iPod Touch。预计明年这个时候，该计划将覆盖超过2.5万名幼儿园至中小学的学生，投资超过2000万美元，而另外一些学区也有效仿之意。将平板电脑用于教学，实属创新，也未见其效果。该学区负责人表示想通过这项计划改变课堂文化，将其变得更有吸引力、更具创新性，同时也向人们证明决定500美元买一台iPad2的投资是明智的。 A Texas school district is trying to close its digital divide by distributing thousands of Apple tablet computers in a move that could make it the largest iPads program for students in the United States。 A Texas school district is trying to close its digital divide by distributing thousands of Apple tablet computers in a move that could make it the largest iPads program for students in the United States。 McAllen Independent School District in the southern part of the state began distributing 6,800 devices this week - mostly the iPad tablet computers, but also hundreds of iPod Touch devices for its youngest students。 By this time next year, the district says every one of its more than 25,000 students from kindergarten to 12th grade will receive an iPad or iPod Touch. The district believes it's the largest to try for complete coverage and while Apple would not confirm that, other districts the company noted as having made large investments have not made ones as big as McAllen's。 |
