Introducing blended learning experiences in core subjects presents many opportunities over traditional print-heavy classrooms.

Having a BYOD policy would seem to perpetuate the divide between the tech-haves and tech-have-nots.

This is not a new concept in any sense. To start the school year, allow students to co-create classroom rules.
