Dive Brief:

• Texas' Fort Bend Independent School District spent millions of dollars on iPads but is killing the program after an independent review.
• The review of the $16 million program found contract and project management problems, as well as unrealistic goals.
• The Fort Bend school district already bought 6,300 iPads and the superintendent says teachers and students can still use those.  

Dive Insight:

One big problem with the program: The vendor developing the learning platform had no curriculum experience. The superintendent and chief information officer who spearheaded the iPad program have left the district.
