The pandemic spurred school districts to hustle to distribute school-issued devices to students for remote learning. Even with in-person learning taking place this school year, many districts plan to retain 1:1 programs in an effort to close the homework gap.
According to the Consortium for School Networking’s 2021 EdTech Leadership Survey Report, 49% of districts are supporting more than 7,500 devices, up from 2020 when 33% of districts managed that many devices.
