Chromebooks (and clouds!) - The Future of School Supplies?



Chromebooks as school supplies?

Let's do the math...

Chromebooks cost $200 - $300.
Chromebooks are expected to last an average of 4 years.
That's an average of $50 - $75 per year of high school.
How much is typically spent on traditional supplies?




What makes Chromebooks great for students?

Slim / Light / Fast
Built-in virus protection
Keyboard for word-processing
Affordable at $200 - $300
Available in a variety of sizes, brands, and colors




As more teachers move in the direction of cloud-based classrooms, many school supplies can be eliminated and replaced with a device.

The implementation of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) initiatives ensure that students have free access. 

Cloud-based storage and online classrooms can replace binders, folders, notebook paper, and many other traditional school supplies.
