I think either a laptop or and ipad should be issued to the students at Bellville High School. Yes I would be willing to help get this process started at Bellville High School.
ReplyDeleteI believe that we should definitely be issued an iPad or a laptop. I would prefer a laptop because they are easier to figure out. You cn also do a lot more stuff on a laptop than an iPad. I think that the laptop would work easier than a hard copy text book. Mainly because textbooks can easily become damaged, lost, or stolen.
ReplyDeleteI as a student would definitely help the school faculty raise money for laptops or iPads. I would start fundraisers and any little thing that would help to make our school efficient.
I believe that Bellville Highschool students should be issued an ipad .
ReplyDeleteI believe that at Bellville High School the students should be issed a laptop or an Ipad to help with the learning environment. Students now do almost everything on the computer and
ReplyDeleteI beleive that Bellville High School students should be issued a laptop computer.Most kids do not have a computer at home to do extra research or look up anything needed to complete homework from school.Laptops are easy to use
ReplyDeleteLife is becoming more modern and more dependent on technology. The use of laptops is becomming common among schools, the use of them for quizs to homework is not rare. The world is starting to become what you would call a virtual world. The majority of people can work out of thier homes only with a lap top/ desktop, and internet.
ReplyDeletelaptops would be alot more usefull to help us learn in the class room setting .It would be getting rid of the paper confusion and turning in papers would be easy we would be saving are forests . On the down side a lot of busineses would go down because of the less paper uses.in other hands if we were to get i-pads they would be nice but i feel like they would be as usefull because they would get damaged and they would stray are minds for the school work because there are way to many game apps and other flause that would be distracting.
ReplyDeleteI believe that being issued a laptop or an Ipad would help out a lot. It goes along with society and would get us ready for the outside world, leading us to our careers and pushing forward with better ideas. A laptop would stop the everyday nonsense such as; loosing papers, unorginization, and just the process of shuffling through them. It's a better and quicker way of doing things. If you forget your binder or book at home, you cannot do your homework, but most people now of days have electronics that would go to the internet that would let us do our homework. You would not have to worry about forgetting anything, making it less stressful. In college you are to have a laptop and complete your assignments on it, but in High School you were not taught how to use those things. It would better prepare us. Laptops and Ipads will mainly be used in our genoration and most likely required more than everywhere we go. Look at society now of days and see how quickly things are changing.
ReplyDeleteI believe we should just stick with the books because labtops will be to much trouble for peaple who aren't good on a computer. If you break the labtop we would have to pay for it.

ReplyDeleteBeing issued an ipad or laptop would make a huge difference, but in a good way. It is more organized and students are updated with the new use of technology needed for their future.

ReplyDeleteI belive we should be able to use a laptop or ipad they would be easier to use than a book. I would be willing to help get them at our school.they would be good for the students about to go to collage.
ReplyDeleteLIfe is becoming more technology based by the week, if the sheer ammount of tech coming out is anything to judge by anyway. We need to have laptops both so that we can utilize the easier to use test taking sites found online as well as give us more options with careers seeing as most of them require at least some form of computer interaction. the students of Ms. Waller's English classes would be more than happy to be thh test classes for such a project if ever it came to BHS.
ReplyDeleteNOTIFICATION: Students at Bellville High School will be issued the most up to date ipad on the market. Starting next week monday. This ipad will help all student become less dependable on the school for internet access. The ipad issued students will be able to keep and do whatever they would like with them.WARNING:this will be the first and only ipad issued from the school. Mr. Battson had recently went on the day time television show Who wants to be a Millionaire(all copyright and infringement properties are nullified) and he would like to share his wealth his studednts. With the Steve Jobs dead the world has become a better place with better technology. Internet access will be neccesary to complete all future assignments. WARNING: Every time a student with an ipad logs on a member of the terrorist organization AL QUEIDA will be killed off.ENJOY YOUR NEW IPADS!
ReplyDeleteI do not think that every student at Bellville High School should be issued a lap-top or ipad for educational puporses. The best way to learn is to see yourself writing down the information not just typing away and not even having to think about what your writing. Plus, the money should go to the teachers who work hard long days for their money. It would be a waste to buy students expensive electronis that will just get ruined within a month.

A laptop or Ipad should be issued to the students at Bellville High School because technology plays a very important role in the world around us. It would make our learning experience a lot more effective and interesting. Many colleges use online programs and we should be introduced to that to help with our success in college and postgraduate. I also believe that it will make students more intrested in learning by letting us use something that is popular. Restrictions can still be put up with these devices.
ReplyDeleteI think Bellville High School should issue a laptop or an ipad. The school wouldn't assign students either one of those because it would cost to much to just afford either one of them. If they were able to afford them the school would have to purchase Wi-Fi or some sort of internet connection to reach the whole school's area.
ReplyDeleteI beleive that Bellville High School students should be issued a laptop computer.School-issued laptops can help make life easier for students who don't have computers at home and maybe even turn more students on to learning.They are easy to use and the web is always up to date.There would be no more heavy book carrying around in your backpack.Students don't even care if they stain their book.By having a laptop students will be extra careful handling them.
ReplyDeleteAlso,what about copying notes?Teachers can send you copies of notes! That would save up to atleast 20 minutes of class time.Students can also look up questions using their laptop,that may help the students remember the question and answer faster.Teachers can also waste less paper if their students have laptops.
The school can control what websites we are able to use.Facebook,myspace,twitter,and all the rest of the unecessary sites can be blocked.Another good thing about laptops is if you play sports,you can carry the laptop with you and finish work.There will be no more excuses that students were'nt at home or at an away game and that they couldn't finish homework.
Students in Bellville High School should have computers in the class. It would save a lot of paper and a lot of trees. Technology will never go away. It would be helpfull because college classes are done by computers. Having computers would be good practice and more easier.
ReplyDeleteI believe students of bellville highschool should be issued a ipad. The ipad is a newer,simpler, and faster way to browse the web.The students will be more organized and mrs. Waller will stop complaining about grading papers. Using a computer would be a much easier since the future involves so much technology!
ReplyDeletelf you are an athlete, you do not have as much free time to do your homework, but if the students are issued a ipad the athlete's can do their work. Instead of losing papers the ipad will save your work. The future involves electronics in almost every job there is, if we start getting used to it we could have a brighter future.
If students aren't sure how to do something all they must do is look it up on the computer, using technology is a much quicker way to obtain knowledge. Being updated on new assignments and work will be easier than missing a few days and having to get caught up. The website can have the work posted by the teacher, so that all the students won't be uninformed! This new age of technology is here we just have to get started.

I believe that the students of Bellville should all be issued either an iPad or a laptop. Either one would work the same abilities. It would be easier to get all of our work in at one time without creating chaos. It would create a responsibility for everyone which would help prepare us for college. It would also let us get all of our work in if we are absent or we don't get an assignment done. I would be willing to get the process started at Bellville high school.
ReplyDeleteI believe that bellville high school kids should be issued laptops it would limit the use of paper and help take notes a little faster. since most kids never have supplies such as paper and pens this would help alot.
ReplyDeleteWell i believe that the school should issue labtops because almost everything we do nowa days is technoligy based.In classrooms it would help out alot so that way ppl in the classroom wouldnt have to constantly use pen and paper.I think it would make the learning environment more fun and easier for everyone
ReplyDeleteI believe students at Bellville high school should be given either laptops or iPads. The reason why is because teachers wouldn't have to worry about students misplacing their papers or leaving them in their lockers. Also, the grades would be sent straight to the teachers rather then them having to grade 100 plus papers each day. These days everyone is using a computer so it would be easier for us to adapt now instead of waiting for us to get to college and not knowing what to do.
ReplyDeleteI believe that the school should provide students with a device that allows them to access the internet. If the school was to do this I would prefer them to purchase iPads because they are smaller and slimmer than normal laptops. IPads are easier to take notes on and they are easier for people that stare down on the keyboard to type because it is just the screen. Plus, if someone gets finished with their work early ther are more options for games on the iPad than a laptop. Eventually, solitare will get old and no one ever knows how to play minesweeper. People don't have to worry about that with an iPad. They could be playing games like Angry Birds, a game that never gets old and is very easy to learn. That's why I think the school should buy iPads for the students.
ReplyDeleteAll colleges are starting to have online classes. Students that don't already have a computer or know how to work it will be stressed. If the school bought each student a computer then sold the computer to the student at graduation, all we would have to know is how to work the computer. That's another thing, if the school bought the computers then they could also teach us how to use them. We would be more prepared as college students if schools would take this into consideration. I mean isn't high school preparing us for college. If they are trying to prepare us then, why don't they get the items we need for college. It would save all of us a bunch of trouble if they would buy the computers and show us how to work them effectively.
As a student I would be willing to get a program started. I would have many approaches to try and get students iPads or laptops. I would first start with a petition. If I could get enough signatures that would be great, if not then the second option would be propose my idea to the school board. If we can't get the school maybe we could get the people on the school board to agree with the idea. Chances are they won't go for it, so the final option is to hold a protest. Isn't that what everyone does whtn they don't get their way. One of these three approaches has to be a way to get each student a computer.
I believe that the students at Bellville High School deserve to get laptops or Ipads because i mean it will save a lot more trees. Now a days everything is done and run off of computers. But i think that we should just be able to use them in English class because with all the papers we write we can just turn them in by sending it in an email.
ReplyDeleteI think we should be allowed to have laptops. Because they would be a lot easier to handle than to have to bring a book every day. Laptops are also a lot easier to keep organized.
ReplyDeleteI believe the students of Bellville High School should be issued laptops because this is the way the world is going. In my opinion, getting homework and other assignments done would be faster and more organized.
ReplyDeleteI believe that it would be beneficial to give laptops and i pads to the the students,but in the real world i dont think our school has enough money to distribute electronic devices to the children. Another bad thing is that most kids i know wouldnt use them for learning but for other things like gaming and social networking. Even if the school had enough money to get these lap tops alot of them would break and have to be replaced.
ReplyDeleteI think Bellville High school should issue thier students a laptop or ipad for a few good reasons. First, it teaches student resposibility. the students are the ones who have to keep up with their laptop, not the teachers. Second, technology is the future. The more we work with computers we become more acquainted with them. And third, when we chose to not use paper we are choosing to help our environment. And that is why i think the school should issue us a laptop or ipad.

ReplyDeleteI believe we should be issued an Ipad or laptop. Preferably a laptop because we will use laptops more than an Ipad. Using laptops would delete the pencil paper method. It would also save some trees from being cut down and allow us to catch up with technology. College classes are being taken online these days so giving us a laptop in high school would only prepare us for out future. Instead of carrying around a backpack full of binders we could just bring a laptop. All our papers would be saved onto the laptop and we would never lose or forget our homework at home.
ReplyDelete~ballin24~
I believe that it would be beneficial for all students should receive an Ipad. Considering that the school would issue them, the laptops would not be the best quality.
ReplyDeleteAlso, the Ipad would be a lot easier than carrying around all these books, but in reality most these devices would be used for other things besides school work. I think a teacher would find it difficult to be able to judge if a student is doing there assignment or if they are playing a game.
I believe that the students of Bellville High School should be issued an ipad since they are very easy to use and inexpensive.Ipads are very portable and can be easily stored.Ipads have many useful apps that can be used for educational purposes. Since the school already has wifi you would not have to purchase anything extra to run the internet. in conclusion it would be in the best intersts of the students and teachers to recieve an ipad
ReplyDeleteI believe that students at Bellville High School should be issued an Ipad or laptop. It would be very beneficial to our learning experience. Instead of our teachers having to keep up with all of our papers, they could just have them on their computer. It would also help the students in that we couldn't lose our papers.
ReplyDeleteUsing an Ipad or laptop in school would better prepare us for college. In college some classes are all on the internet, while others will have tests and quizzes that you have to take on the computer.
Giving the students at Bellville High School Ipads or Laptops is a great idea and would really benefit us in the future.
I think that ipads and laptops would be helpful to our learning enviroment, but has the potential to be a distraction. Now days all things in life can be done by computer. However, the temtation to visit social web pages would make the idea a bad one.
ReplyDeleteI believe that Bellville High School students should be issued a laptop or ipad, to help them ont their schoolwork. Mostly everthing is done on a computer now. Using the ipad or laptop would better prepare us for the college. college classes are taken on the computer. It would help us in the future.
ReplyDeleteMaggie Estrada believes that there should be laptop in this school that way we wont waste paper and we can ask questions during class periods. All they can do is block facebook and other websites so we cant get in it during school day.
ReplyDeleteIpads and laptops should be issued to all Bellville Highschool students. It would save the school money on paper and if you missed school you would be able to complete your work at home. Only math classes should get to use paper for working out problems. This would better prepare us for college and help us become more technoligical advanced. Thsi would also help cut down on losing our work.
ReplyDeleteI believe ipads, laptops should be issued to Bellville High school students. It would help to do things over the web and we wouldn't have to deal with the cluster of all the papers. We could easily make a folder and keep all of our notes in it. It would make learning easier and faster. Instead of sitting there taking notes for twenty minutes in class and taking up half of the class period, the teacher could email us the notes and we could study them. It would also help us learn faster and learn more things in the amount of time deducted from taking notes. I would help getting laptops and ipads issued to Bellville High.
ReplyDeleteI believe that laptops and iPads should be issued because we would have more access to the outer world which could really help us learn easier and faster.
ReplyDeleteI think students should be issued ether a laptop or an ipad. It solves the issue of carrying textbooks around and trying to find particular information in them. Using the internet in class, you would be able to figure out things that you otherwise could. It would be easy to carry around because you wouln't need anything else because it is filled with information.
ReplyDeleteI believe that BEllville should allow us to have ipads because it would be much less of a hassle. The ipad would make high school life much more simpler
ReplyDeletei think that the student of BHS should be issued ipads or labtops. It would help us alot in learning. we would make better grades because work would get done. We couldnt use lame excuses of "losing our papers, or leaving them at home, or not finding them in our messy backpacks." The ipad would make BHS more up to date and social.
ReplyDeleteI think students at Bellville High School should be issued an i-pad or laptop. Students would learn better and do their work more often.

ReplyDeleteI believe that if we get either computer. It would help the class and Mrs. Waller even more. First of all we can learn more and get stuff done in and out of class because it is on a computer.
ReplyDeleteThe computer that I would choose would be an ipad. Because it is small and unique piece of technology. I would like to learn how to use it and work on it. So I get things done and have fun doin it. We just need some cash so we can provide a class set.
I believe that a laptop would be a more useful than an ipad. For example, a laptop can hold Microsoft programs while an ipad cannot. This shows that a laptop is more useful when holding large amounts of information. This also shows that a laptop has a bigger memory core. Furthermore, laptops are more durable than ipads. This shows that a laptop will last longer than an ipad. This also shows that its durability makes it worth the money you pay for it.
ReplyDeleteHaving a laptop for school would help me when i go to college. For example, i would be completely familiar with all the programs on a laptop. This shows that when a professor gives me an assignment i will be completely prepared for it. This also shows that i will not be unsure of the programs that will be used in college. Furthermore, having a laptop during school would help me a lot on getting school assignments turned in more quickly. This shows that people most likely understand their assignment more easily since its on a computer. This also shows that teachers would be able to assign more work for students, so they can cover stuff more quickly than without a laptop.
I would not be willing to get this trend started. For example, if it did start teachers would expect us to get our assignments turned in more quickly. This shows that the teachers would have even more work ready for us than usual. This also shows that we students will have less time to relax. Furthermore, if we get this trend started our parents taxes would go up. This shows that our parents would have to pay more taxes so the students could use laptops. This also shows that the school would not be willing to pay for the laptops themselves. In conclusion, the school not having laptops or ipads will work out best for everybody.
I believe that Bellville High School should issue every student a laptop. If they issued every student a laptop it would save a lot of paper. The students and the school would not have to spend there money on paper for every class they would have what they neeeded right at there finger tips.
ReplyDeleteAnother reason they should give us laptops is that every one complains about tarties well if we had a laptop we really wouldn't need locker so it would save us time in the hallways.
The third reason is that it would be a lot easier to carry a laptop home then having to decide what boooks we needed to take home. All of are boooks would be on just one computure and we could just take that home every day.
As a Bellville High School student I do believe we should be issued a laptop or ipod. It would be much of a convenience to stop wasting unnesesary amounts of paper and use technology to our advantage.
ReplyDeleteI believe the kids here should get a lab top or something.It would be helpful so we wouldnt waste so much paper also we could could be able to keep up with the new technology.
ReplyDeleteI believe that Bellville High School students should be issued a laptop or Ipad for classroom activities. It would save a lot of money on the paper that the school has to buy year around and teachers would not have to worry about spending their budget. If we were issued a laptop or Ipad we would have to put a down payment on the device to make sure we did not damage the computer and would get it back when the year is over.
ReplyDeleteI believe the students of Bellville High School should be issued an Ipad or laptop because it will get us ready for the outside world. After I leave Bellville High School it would help me prepare for the way we have to do the work in college. Yes, I would be willing to help get this process started.
