Do you think the HSPA test should be given on a computer or over the Internet? Why?
- I think that the math part should remain on paper due the fact that we need to show our work. The english part should be administrated on the computer because some student s are faster typers than writers. I think the test should remain the way it is so things can stay traditional.

Do you think that portable devices such as smartphones, ipods, game boys, etc. have value for education? Should they be banned from school or used to enhance education?
- I think portable devices do have some educational value, its just that adults dont take the time to learn about these things and just focus on getting these things banned. I dont think such electronic devices should be banned because if we learn how to use them in school for only that purpose, then maybe we can focus more on whats important.
