Aging computers create drag in classrooms

Nelson County Schools was struggling with outdated computers across all of its campuses. Nearly 70 percent of the student workstations were more than five years old, creating an array of problems and adversely affecting user experience. In some cases it was taking five minutes or more just to login at the beginning of class, making it difficult for teachers to keep students focused.

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