C B D C B A A Giving every student access to a computing device at school is seen as a way to compensate for some students’ lack of access to technology outside of school, thus reducing digital inequality. It is also the case that computer companies are promoting laptop initiatives as a way to sell low–cost machines to schools. A third factor promoting one-to-one programs is that technology use will prepare students for higher education where more and more colleges and universities are now offering courses where everyone is expected to use computing devices in classes. 9.
