During the spring 2002 semester, an informal experiment at McNair Academic High School in Jersey City, New Jersey, dealt with the use of laptop computers as a teaching and learning tool in an algebra 1 class. One class of students used laptops as an integral part of their study of algebra, whereas a second class studied the subject in a traditional manner. This article reports on the experiment. It details how the study was conducted, the classroom approach taken by the teacher, problems encountered, the students' reaction, and so on.
