From this:
In a letter sent to parents, Mr Gleeson wrote, “The roll-out of e-learning which involved the use of HP Elite Pads and e-books should have been an exciting and new way of moving forward.
“The HP Elite Pad has proved to be an unmitigated disaster. We have met with HP representatives on a number of occasions to address the issues.
“To ensure stability and continuity of education I have ordered a full set of books for all the students.”
Students experienced problems such as tablets failing to switch on, tablets spontaneously going into sleep mode, devices looping while performing automatic repairs, system board failures and issues with wi-fi.
Yes.. that made me laugh..
I kid the Canadians.
I have noticed that since "everything changed" you have been obeying traffic laws much more closely to the letter when you're here visiting.
Not that I can blame you. But it kind of crimps my style when I'm trying to get home and you're going 41 in a 45.
what it would feel like to be an American with 45% of the population believing the earth is less than 10,000 years old.
I try to stay close to the cold water. They don't seem to like the cold water.
The middle of the country? Sure. The south and southwest? You betcha. But California's water is a coldwater current. And New England? The midwest lakes region? Alaska is a bit of an anomaly, but that's nothing new (and I think you Canadians get partial credit for Alaska anyway).
Not sure why, but I stick to cold water places.
Note: I'm joking. It makes me sad. We just don't teach science seriously in public schools anymore, and haven't for a long time. We further politicize science at our peril. But, it is a pendulum. They will discredit themselves given enough time and rope.
