For policymakers, educators and others interested in learning more about the one-to-one computing movement, this issue of "The Progress of Education Reform" spotlights three particularly useful resources: (1) a detailed review of the challenges faced by states and districts implementing laptop programs, and of lessons learned to date in five critical areas: planning, training and professional development, hardware and software, managing change, and program monitoring and evaluation; (2) a recently published study of the use and impact of one-to-one computing in the Henrico County School District in Virginia, where all students and teachers in grades 6-12 have laptops with wireless Internet connectivity; and (3) a report by the Consortium for School Networking examining how new and emerging technologies could reshape teaching and learning in K-12 schools over the next five years.
