Dive Brief:

• The iPads in Los Angeles classrooms may be getting a bad rap amid rollout hiccups and questions about funding, but the curriculum itself may be winning over teachers.
• LA Weekly received a more thorough demo of the curriculum than even school board members have received and reports that the bare bones curriculum used in the pilot phase has been replaced with something more robust. 
• The curriculum reviewed by the paper was tailored to each student, with the possibility to interact with other students and the teacher via the tablet.
