Technology in the classroom

I believe that using laptops in the classroom is a great idea, as long as teachers and other educators get the proper training needed to teach with them. After doing a little research I found that laptop computers need a lot of up keep; kids put forth great effort to look at inappropriate web sites and/or they spend time working on other subject materials. I like the idea of having technology in the classroom, but how much of a distraction will it be?

I like the idea of having laptops in the classroom as well. Like you, I worry that the students will be looking at the web instead of doing what they are suppose to be doing.
