Innovation isn’t necessarily
new technology.
Instead it’s a way of thinking, creating, communicating.
Instead of ‘I Teach’
It’s About ‘You Learn’
What is BYOD?What is BYOD?Wikipedia says:
a concept where people use personally owned devices which are not owned by their employers or schools
Bring relates to bringing the device to the environment where the service is provided. In some cases it is physically limited to a location (wireless, certain rooms), but more often it is time and location independent.
Your refers to the person bringing the device.
Own refers to device ownership of students and teachers.
Devices include smartphones, tablets, ereaders, laptops, etc.

Moving toward authentic learning
5 additional schools - 45 teachers
No devices offered
Training more specific but only one day
Still a pilot
Year 2 - 2010-2011
Still on a per teacher basis

Osseo Senior High School - first entire open school
No devices, No training
Still a pilot - data is self-reported
Year 3 - 2011-2012
"My students have their laptop with them at all times and decide when to use it. They might have different ideas, more open ideas than I do. I'm not yet sure how to use the laptops, and I welcome the student input."Shelly Drake, 5th Grade Teacher

• “I’d rather a teacher knows a couple tools and lots of ways to use them, than lots of tools and only a single way to use them. Staff development that is teacher, rather than technologist, led would be a good start.” (Doug Johnson, Blue Skunk Blog, http://doug-johnson.squarespace.com/blue-skunk-blog/2012/8/2/larry-cuban-and-teachers-making-tech-choices.html
