Is it good for homework

It does more than just homework... it's basically a moderate gaming computer as well. Plugged in it will run almost any game smoothly. And if it can run a game no question it's good for homework.

I think it would absolutely be great for the classroom! I've only ever used it with my two kids, but I don't see why it couldn't be shared among 6 or more kids. We use it mostly for math facts and it is very easy to tailor it to your needs. My son is in second grade and my daughter is in 5th. We use it with multiplication (in our own way) and it's a nice quick/easy way to refresh her and prepare my son.

I don't believe it's used for school. But if it was used for research it would be great.

It should work just fine for most things; since you didn't specify what EXACTLY you are trying to do, it should do most tasks well.

My son also does homework on it since he is too distracted in his own desk. Although the glass does easily pop off the suction if leaned on too much or lifted up. It should be fine otherwise.

We have used it in the school I work in with great success, so yes! That and my own children use it as well.

Too much stuff to list, I would be typing for awhile. For the price it is good and for me it has worked when it comes to focusing on things. I'm 52 yr old and studying Computer Science, C++ to be exact, and it has helped me.

I bought mine a year ago for my then 6 year old first grader for home use. I had also bought him 6 boxes of 36 count Ticonderoga Beginners - Primary Size pencils (extra fat). He loves his sharpner so much that he decided to sharpen all 216 pencils. When doing homework at night he would purposely press hard to break the lead, just so that he could run back and sharpen his pencil with it. We had to start keeping 5 or 6 pencils at a time at the table while doing homework just to avoid that. If this sharpner can put up to his daily abuse, it should do fine in a classroom setting.

Definitely. I use it primarily for my laptop [11"], but I also use it for grading.

Yes, it really is good at having you look at letters and form them into words. It also helps with math skills since you need to add the point values of each card for your score.

They write well; and are good for note-taking, but there might be a little bleed-through for standard lined paper. I'd test it out. Also, good luck with high school.

Yes Jose, I think this would be great for school. Each section does not expand very much so if you have a lot of papers it will not work. It's made pretty sturdy so could last for awhile. Good luck.

If you need it for homework, reading etc I think you will find it adequate at the highest setting

Yes. I'm a classroom teacher and I bought it for that purpose. I think it does a good job for the money.

As far a I know yes. To do your homework you will have to go through a google word processing program.

It is a little small if you refer to many text books together while studying. Its good for studying with a laptop or a couple of textbooks.

Although this computer performs very well and has touch screen I would not recommend it for school use. Computers for school use are best if they are mobile. I would recommend the Samsung Slate or the Surface with Windows 8 that should be available around Feb 9. I do not recommend the current Surface with Windows RT. The price is tempting but there are too many limitations regarding software that requires the desktop environment of Windows.
