Politico.com reports on Obama Administration efforts to push STEM issues in school and the obstacles involved. Edweek provides some details on the huge 1:1 deal between L.A. Unified school district and Apple, which could potentially be a $500 million project to give devices to more than 660,000 students! Finally, KQED gets big picture with the recent NMC Horizon report.
