I gave my students iPads — then wished I could take them back - The Washington Post

"study released in September by
the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development looked at school tech
initiatives in more than three dozen countries (although not the United States)
and found that while students who use computers moderately show modest gains
over those who rarely do, heavy technology use has a negative impact. “Students
who use computers very frequently at school do a lot worse in most learning
outcomes, even after accounting for social background and student
demographics,” the report concluded."
