I hated lugging textbooks home, taking a chromebook home would’ve been much easier.

    “We” aren’t. Google made durable Chromebooks available to schools super cheap, and schools (being famously underfunded) bought them. This is happening the way Google wants it to.

    How exactly would RasPis work for kids in schools, though? It’s hard enough to make sure kids have their chargers, let alone needing to pack a monitor and keyboard.

      Make the monitor a part of the desk, have the kid bring a RaspPi with a keyboard+trackpad combo.

      Done.
