St. Catherine’s is a small K–7 Catholic school in British Columbia. The school offers networked computing in some of its classrooms, but the primary site for computer-based learning is the school’s library media center, where the computer lab is housed.
When Ray Kase joined Downingtown Area School District (DASD) as director of technology, his most immediate challenge was clear: Slow and unreliable computers meant less computer time for the 12,000 K-12 students in the district just west of Philadelphia. Classrooms, labs and libraries throughout the city were filled with computers in desperate need of replacement.

Nearly 80 percent of students in secondary schools never use computers in the core subjects such as languages, mathematics and sciences.
