RANDOLPH, Utah. January 16, 2013. At last month’s school
board meeting, the discussion was held concerning one-on-one technology for
students in Rich County.
After looking further into
this project, it was noted that digital text books are more expensive than
originally thought. Also, textbooks
would probably have to be purchased each year.
Some companies will allow for contracts to be signed allowing use of the
materials for several years with updates, which would help keep costs
down.
The Board requested the
Superintendent and teachers at the High School level proceed with getting the
needed technology in place. This would
give the District a year to get everything going and work out any problems or
difficulties prior to having the whole District participate. It would give everyone enough time to see how
things work and see if that will be the direction the other schools in the
district should be going.
The Board asked that they be
kept informed of how things are going in the technology area.
