[CASL-L] Chrome Books

[Sara Whalen]

If you are considering Chrome Books, I would recommend you look into
becoming a "Google School."  I do not know the details about how this is
set up, but it is my understanding that it is entirely free.

I recently purchased a touchscreen Chromebook for $250. It is amazingly
fast and easy to use.  Currently, it takes our students approximately 10
minutes to log on to our laptops, so we lose a lot of instructional time.
 My Chromebook starts in literally 2 seconds.  It is incredibly fast and
easy to use.

Good luck,
Sara
