 * Reviews concerning the Laptop project from Grade 7 students at Harvey High School and Mrs. MacKay( Grade 7 Core French teacher at Harvey High School)**

//“I have seen the true value that technology brings to the Core French classroom in the faces of my students. The laptops have provided an environment where my students are engaged, are successful and are proud of their work. Most importantly, technology in the Core French classroom creates a learning environment which is interactive and alive, and sets the tone for an environment in which the language can be enjoyed and appreciated.”//
 * -Sara MacKay, Grade 7 Core French teacher**

//“I think that the laptops have made a big difference in my learning skills in almost every class. The laptops have made class more worth while, instead of sitting back listening, and trying to remember what the teacher said, now that we have the laptops, we can type our notes and remember what our teacher said.”//
 * -Blake B, Grade 7 student**

//“I love our laptops. I find that these laptops keep me focused and out of trouble. Our class has certainly benefited. Our typing skills have improved greatly and we get more accomplished in class”//
 * -Justin B, Grade 7 student**

//“Now that we have laptops, it makes me want to go to school. I even get myself up now”//
 * -Cody H, Grade 7 student**

//“Before getting the laptops, it was difficult to present your work in front of other students. With the laptops, our work is presentable, and we can take more pride in our work. Everything can be creative and express who you are as a person and it’s easier to learn about what you’ve created. You can’t make PowerPoint or movies on pen and paper. It’s just not that easy! This technology is a wonderful learning tool.”//
 * -Starla W, Grade 7 student**

//“I really like the laptops because it is making me want to go to school.”//
 * -Gabriel W, Grade 7 student**

//“I think that the Notebook computers are really good for students because it has raised my grades by a lot, and I think my classmates would say the same thing. Another thing is that no one has been sent out of class for behavior and I think that my classmates would say that all of them are paying attention in class.”//
