| Laptops help heighten learning in Point Beach schools |

| Maria Villanueva’s eighth-grade Spanish class was silent Tuesday morning but for the rhythmic clicking of nearly two dozen keyboards. Each student typed a paragraph in Spanish into their own laptop and then created a character to read their words back to them so they could hear the language and catch any mistakes. Whether its practicing proper dialect of the romance language, making a video or scheduling the due date of a new assignment, nearly 600 students in Point Pleasant Beach School District are being exposed to new ways of learning because of the 1:1 Laptop Initiative. |
