On a Friday morning in January, TIME FOR KIDS visited Mineola Middle School, in Mineola, New York, to chat with faculty and students about how they use high-tech devices in their classrooms. This year, fifth graders, sixth graders and some seventh graders at the school each received iPads or netbooks. Watch the video above to hear about their experiences so far.  Learn more about rise of technology in U.S. schools in the February 3, 2012, edition of TIME FOR KIDS.
