CoSN 2007 VOI Case Studies
The 2007 VOI case studies and CoSN VOI Initiative were developed to help district level technology decision makers assess the costs and evaluate the benefits of proposed technology investments before making costly, time intensive decisions and commitments. The VOI studies are intended to provide school technology administrators and other educators with insight on best practices for making sound choices about education technology projects, and to better articulate the costs and benefits of these proposed projects.

The Arizona school district is investigating two approaches to one-to-one student computing.
