One Computer Per Student: What has been learned at Grove City College?

Abstract

Since 1994, each full-time student and faculty member at Grove City College has been equipped with a portable computer and printer. This paper discusses the administrative and academic lessons learned by Grove City College during its implementation of a one-computer-per-student program. The authors address the most commons questions asked by institutions considering such a program. These topics include administrative considerations, acquisition and distribution, program management, technical support, lessons learned, curriculum integration, student and faculty response, and the future of integration.
