For all their shortcomings and challenges, West Virginia schools have more classrooms with computers, a lower ratio of students per computer and even more widespread online course offerings than the national average, according to a new report highlighted by The Register-Herald of Beckley.
"The state received an overall score of 95.3 on the report, which ranks West Virginia at the top of the class for its use of technology," the article said.
The report, Technology Counts 2008: STEM, The Push to Improve Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics, was issued by Education Week and features a separate section on the Mountain State's scores.
