Back-to-school shopping can be a real pain for teachers if you’re not sure where the deals are. Sure, every teacher knows to buy as much at the Dollar Store or seek out deals at Costco.

It has recently been suggested that, in order to elevate the quality and status of teachers in America, teachers need to take a “bar exam.” After all, doctors and lawyers have serious hurdles to jump over in order to secure and maintain their licenses. The work that you do as a teacher is just as important as the work that a doctor or a lawyer does—in fact you educate future doctors and lawyers. Why shouldn’t teachers be held to the same standard as lawyers and doctors?

There are many benefits to having students in a “one-to-one” classroom, where each student has access whenever needed to an Internet-connected device. One-to-one classrooms can differ both with regard to the tools they use and the manner in which those tools are employed. Some 1:1 classrooms, for example, have a class set of iPads at their disposal; others use laptops, netbooks, or tablet computers. In every case, however, the key to a 1:1 classroom is that the tech devices being used are not shared with other classrooms (as is the case with a computer lab or a laptop cart that rotates from classroom to classroom) – instead, the teacher and students know that they will be able to access the devices whenever needed.
