Every school child in Los Angeles is to be given an iPad following a $30million deal with Apple. The Los Angeles Unified School District announced on Tuesday the decision after teachers voted iPads the cheapest product and the best quality in the market. iPads will now be handed out in 47 schools to give students from low-income households a better chance in the classroom as new national and state tests are to be taken on the devices. Core issue: Each school student in Los Angeles is to get an iPad to use in class Supt. John Deasy said that the tablet project would be paid for using school construction bonds that are repaid over decades, according to the LA Times.
