My College Laptop Selects Community Colleges With The Best Laptop Loaner Programs

LEHI, Utah, March 1, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- My College Laptop, an education resource website that advocates for technology immersion in colleges, believes technology has been unfairly vilified as the driver of income inequality. The Pew Research Center recently highlighted the technology gap, particularly access to technology by low-income Americans, as a key driver of income inequality.

Studies by K-12 education researchers at Michigan State University demonstrate positive student outcomes of 1:1 laptop programs, teacher training programs and technology immersion programs.

"With positive student outcomes in K-12 across all cohorts and income levels, it's exciting to see robust college laptop programs thriving in community colleges.  If we assume that K-12 institutions are leading indicators, community colleges that address the tech gap will ultimately improve student outcomes", said Terrence Thomas, Managing Director of My College Laptop.

My College Laptop, has compiled a list of innovative community colleges that are aggressively addressing the technology gap for their students. The community colleges listed below are not ranked in a traditional sense. Instead, we wanted to positively highlight the resourcefulness and determination of community colleges in addressing the technology gap by offering laptops to students. "
