While I don't buy into all of the Common Core mumbo jumbo in the US (my kid has to go through this, so we are dealing with it as parents), the importance of keyboards is interesting. They didn't point out to onscreen vs tactile, but the importance of tactile keyboards for children is an important consideration. Maybe keyboarding will go away altogether once we can speak to our computers like Captain Picard does for his "Tea, Earl Grey, hot", but we are not there yet. cheers, Sameer -- Sameer Verma, Ph.D. Professor, Information Systems San Francisco State University http://verma.sfsu.edu/ http://commons.sfsu.edu/ http://olpcsf.org/ http://olpcjamaica.org.jm/ _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
