Yeah. My kid doesn’t go to a school where they use computers or iPads this way, but I have to assume that lessons are done on device and therein lies the problem. Can’t confiscate the device because then the kid can’t do the lessons. So now teachers have to fund classrooms partially out of their own pocket, spend unpaid time outside school hours to do marking and lesson planning, and play IT. Teachers already have a lot on their plates without adding an extra burden that the administration should be addressing properly.
Basically the district he’s in now issues iPads. All course work is done on them through a mix of Canvas, Google Docs, and some websites. We talked with the school and had a thing where he’d have to leave it there and check it out in the morning cause he couldn’t be trusted with it.
