As technology becomes more affordable and ubiquitous, many schools across the United States have started a "one student-to-device" (1:1) or Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) program. As these programs spread, it is critical that these devices are used to improve instruction and increase student achievement. Our mission is to work with schools to make these initiatives wildly successful.
