You put a creative kid with a good work ethic in front of paper or a computer and you will get something done well. You put a lazy kid in front of paper or a computer - it makes no difference - you get very little response.
Success has to do with work ethic. If parents don't instill a good work ethic, it doesn't matter what technology offered - they will struggle in school and life.
Technology can't save all kids - it will be a tool for kids, who use it, to enhance the work they already do.

Worth sharing with my principal. Could see this being used as an introduction for discussion in a teachers' workshop.
