Schools ditching laptop programs en masse {Engadget}
May 4th 2007 9:45AM As a student I witness people playing games , watching movies/tv shows , browsing the net , etc in lecture. I don't understand the point of attending a lecture where attendence isn't mandatory just to watch a movie. It's also very distracting when the person in the row in front of you is watching the episode of greys you missed last week.
I have also seen the plus side , using a laptop allows for precise neat notes to be made and well it doesn't happen that often I have seen students look up info the prof has talked about in class or even seen profs ask that students look things up.
Personally my laptop has helped me with classes, but I've been called a keener so I don't know if I would be considered the norm.
