I feel Bohnhorst's introduction needs some work. The essay seems to me that it is more on the use of computers in school rather than just the use of powerpoint. The reference to powerpoint and the use of Jennifers statement is good, but the thesis needs to be changed or add more to the opening paragraph to incorporate the overall use of computers in school.
The overall essay is written very well, there is a lot of good information on computer use in elementary school. I did not know that there are schools out there, elementary or otherwise, that were actually going to issue laptops to students. I don't think that it is a bad idea if the funding is there. It would definitely give younger students a jump on computer programs and overall use. There is no getting around the technology advancement of the world. There is always going to be someone that is trying to come up with something to make there lives easier, whether it is a new computer program or some new invention to make a task simpler. Invention is human, if not we would not be on top of the food chain. There would be some carnivore that would dominate the planet. the human mind is able to create and invent things through trial and error and cognitive thinking.
I do not feel that the laptop should replace book or pencil and paper, but if there is the means to make things easier for students to adapt to the world they are living in than so be it. if the laptop is introduced to make life easier than the curriculum should also be ramped up. The school curriculum is based around a text book, if the laptop is introduced it would make school work to easy and students would not have the knowledge needed to survive in the real world, some times computers crash!!!

Floppy disks usage are no longer relevant these days. They have been replaces with SD cards and USB. I don't know if doing some dissertation on the fallacy of floppy disk will still be relevant these days.
