ScienceDaily (Jan. 21, 2010) - A dozen years into the “1 to 1″ computing
movement’s push to pair every schoolchild and teacher with a laptop,
studies show the students in these programs outperformed their peers in
traditional classrooms, according to researchers.

OK, the report appears to focus on just literacy and reports numeracy
progress as “flat”.



Is there any proper UK research into other areas eg humanities, science,
sport studies etc etc?
