Creating a learning environment for kids to excel and grow is what the school system lives by, so adding special features like Wi-Fi to public schools could enhance the whole learning process.
According to the Los Angeles Times, President Obama plans to bring Wi-Fi to public schools with the help of companies like Apple, Microsoft, AT&T, and Verizon, governmental resources from the Federal Communications Commission, and private support in the sum of approximately $2.75 billion dollars of funds and supplies.
This move to improve the education system in America is a step in the right direction. The internet can be a powerful tool in learning, and access to Wi-Fi would allow for further research into ideas and concepts for students online, as well as aid them in doing their homework.
This is a part of an effort labeled ConnectED that was illustrated in the State of the Union address this year, writes CBS News, “Imagine what it means for educators to spend less time grading tests and papers, and more time helping young people learn,” said Obama.
Wi-Fi in establishments like malls, movie theaters, and coffee shops is convenient, but Wi-Fi in schools can be so much more beneficial for the growth of the nation’s youth.
