[nobe-l] Google classroom

[Dr. Denise M Robinson]

Laura
When schools tell me their students are using a chromebook, I immediately
say no and that they need a pc i7 16 gb of RAM because you are teaching for
life and not fighting with a piece of technology that will give more grief
than success. I account success as a blind or low vision child has all the
needed keyboard commands and programs at their fingertips to complete work
as fast as anyone else and access their education in all aspects

As a TVI--you can direct to what a child truly needs
