**Professional Development**
Professional development is key to an effective one-to-one implementation, but unfortunately, is often under- funded. Teachers need to understand how one-to-one will change their classrooms, have an opportunity to envision the day-to-day transformation that can occur, and be given time to learn, experiment, and reflect on the possibilities. Professional development should be based on an understanding of adult learners who have a wealth of knowledge, want opportunities to think and reflect, and want to learn by doing, not viewing. There should be continual support both pedagogically and technologically.
