A Learning Tool for Every Learner

Imagine for a moment that your son or daughter will be going off to college shortly. The college sends you a letter that due to circumstances students may only be provided with ONE learning tool. ONE.

You may choose a textbook or you may choose a pen, calculator, or whatever. One tool.
What would that tool be?

I know what I would choose.

Why, then, are educational spending priorities so difficult? Why are we not providing that one tool to every school age child? At the very least to every secondary student...

Ask your school leaders the ONE tool question. I'd like to hear the response. Post it here.
