DESCRIPTION

As schools prepare for common core assessment implementation, they must also address the need to include BYOD in their plans. Though BYOD might not be used for the assessment, it does provide significant benefits to schools for differentiation and individualization of content directed to each child’s need as indicated by the assessment. It is important that every school technology leader knows how BYOD can enhance the teaching/learning process and provide resource strapped schools with much needed tools. The challenge of preparing for common core assessments is hard enough; however, with the advantages that BYOD provides, it behooves all school technology leaders to tackle the issues involved with a BYOD initiative. In this webcast you will learn how SchoolDude can help ensure that your district is technology ready for the common core assessment, as well as, for the rise in BYOD.

School technology leaders have to look at their value to the organization first as an educator. Provide tech solutions to problems that have been identified on the instructional or operational side. Data management is becoming more important as it is used to measure student growth. Identify what the technology department is doing and how it ties into the classroom. Ensure your tech staff knows why it is there. It is not simply to keep the equipment running.

Establish a strategic partnership between curriculum and technology in your school district. Meet regularly, set objectives that are measurable and ensure that all stakeholders are aware of your plans.

Allow curriculum leaders to provide input on the technology budget

for learning resources. Set metrics to determine the relative impact of purchases so that future procurements will have the desired impact.

Calculate the total cost of ownership (TCO) for technology

purchases. This should include costs for installation, configuration, as well as, soft costs associated with related internal staff duties.

Gartner Says Bring Your Own Device Programs Herald the Most Radical Shift in Enterprise Client Computing Since the Introduction of the PC. – Gartner Press Release 08/28/2012 While BYOD programs can reduce costs, they typically do not. As businesses look to drive ever more capability to the mobile device, the costs of software, infrastructure, personnel support and related services will increase over time. Once companies start including file sharing, business applications and collaboration tools, the costs to provide mobile services go up dramatically. – Gartner Special Report "Bring Your Own Device: New Opportunities, New Challenges."

Standardized education practices offer little room for “double-loop learning”. Feedback loops are important in the learning process because educational practice improves via on-going cycles of feedback and adaptation. – Mark Weston
