Printing and the XO

> > Which teachers or schools have been asking for printing support?

A few years ago I went to a tech for education conference in Portland Oregon.

The teachers at that conference only wanted programs that had the ability to 
print out student work.

Printing is necessary for the public display of student work.

This is necessary when you want a record of what the student has done as well 
as when you want to show others what the student has done.

At that time students worked on lab computers so a method of taking examples 
of student work home was needed.

Also it was a way of building a portfolio to justify the use of computers in 
the classroom.
