Did you have an I pad in first grade?
I didn't even touch a computer until I was a senior in HS neither did most of my class and guess what we still learned.

Right because in 2013 not touching a computer until HS is the thing that's going to move America forward
Yeah and learning to google search will right?
There are benefits to learning the old fashioned way especially for young children that will yield better outcomes than using computers.

93% of American homes have one or more computers. Engadget doesn't provide the direct stats for a breakdown, but I would bet that this includes 100% of homes that have school age children. The government doesn't need to supply computers or cell phones - people will have them and have access to them without the government.
According to...?
Nothing...exactly

If government doesn't provide iPhones, then no children will have access to iPhones, right?
So according to nothing, like I said.

Technology in schools is likely to be outdated, and Apple. Not exactly preparation for a high tech future.

Applicant: I have great computer skills.
Interviewer: Great, you know Excel and Powerpoint, can write Java code and SQL queries?
Applicant: Well no, but I know iTunes and can post on FaceBook....

Apple: Destroying the future, one fucktard at a time.
Thats the diff between Librals 
& conservatives. Our side sees that investments in education are needed as can be witnessed by world rankings in math & science. Conservatives? Not so much.
Now you're making this about Apple? Can you just type when you have just one point you're willing to stick with?
stop being a retard retard

The study assessed technology’s impacts using two types of student achievement measures. The first set of measures assessed reading achievement among students who were part of the reading cluster experiments, and math achievement among students who were part of the math cluster experiments. The second set of measures used data collected from school records and included such outcomes as student attendance and promotion to the next grade. The study also examined the conditions and practices under which educational technology is effective. The design yielded measures of technology’s impacts for each school in the study. The importance of school-level conditions and practices was explored by relating the school-level impact estimates and measures of school factors.
On average, after one year, products did not increase or decrease test scores by amounts that were statistically different from zero.

There is nothing that a K-8Th grade student needs a computer to learn.
It's called common sense.

Maybe Brazil wants to fund computer science classes?

You said "yield BETTER results". According to whom? Your feelings? Nevermind, just stop saying stuff that has no roots in reality.

See edited post.
If technology is statistically null in improving grades then the old fashioned way yields better results.
Regarding public education, Dilma suggested that the chambers would approve to use 100 percent of royalties coming from oil extraction on the public education system. Congressmen and senators immediately discussed this proposal, and on Wednesday they finally approved to split 75 percent education, 25 percent health.

Another casualty of the decline in interest surrounding science and even math is the US education system, which Kaku describes as the most dysfunctional among advanced capitalist countries.
"Fifty percent of the top engineers and grunts doing the work in Silicon Valley are foreign-born and that is unsustainable," Kaku says. "One day, the brain drain will reverse -- it's starting to happen. Now top scientists are starting to go back to China and back to India. That's why our education cannot continue to be one of the worst known to science."
