I repair chromebooks for a school district. While I don't think using a Macs/Macbooks in gradeschool will make you any more successful or computer savvy, I do think that using a Chromebook is will definitely not help you succeed either. In the business world, everything seems to be MS Office suite or proprietary. Chromebooks and chromeapps just aren't ubiquitous enough to warrant having inside out knowledge of them (not that you can really have any super indepth knowledge on Drive, or Slides, or Classroooms...)<br><br>At Tech Center we use entirely Mac and PC, no one uses a chromebook simply because the capability isn't there. I do think learning a MacOS or Windows is much more useful than ChromeOS and many of the teachers in the district agree.,(reply>), What Schiller said is being taken out of context anyway, his main complaint was essentially that Chromebooks are just a 'digitised for the sake of digitised' version of how we already work and learn and they don't really add anything to the experience, he sees iPads and a more interactive/creative approach that it unlocks as the future of classroom learning rather than just using a Chromebook to tick the 'we use computers' box without changing <b>how</b> students are learning and I think that's a fair enough criticism.
