56 Hi-Tech Back to School Supplies

Although writing utensils and paper are school staples, there are also a lot of really cool examples of back to school technology that leave old school supplies in the dust. Some of these awesome items include tablets, high-tech notebooks and pens that you'll never want to lend out to other students.

In an effort to help classrooms become more paperless and eco-friendly, there are some great notebooks that are designed to play nicely with digital devices like phones and tablets. To compete with some of these high-tech devices, objects like pencil sharpeners and plain HB pencils are being turned into multipurpose items that are much more equipped to fit into modern classrooms, also doubling as styluses and USBs, making it less for keen students to pack into their pencil cases.
