Instructional Technology

Planning for teachers

• Classroom Use – When can students use devices?

• To do what? – Define expectations.– Know the Acceptable Use Policy (AUP). – What procedures will I put into place?

• Pre-existing procedures• “Devices Down”• Expect full attention

– It’s your classroom• Teaching and Learning

Instructional Technology

Planning for teachers

• Curriculum– How will the devices impact my

teaching?• New resources and web tools

– How often should I use them?– Curriculum drives the technology

tool.• Technology tools “enhance” the

teaching and learning process.• Let students take the lead.

Responsibilities

• MAINTENANCE and REPAIR– NOT THE TEACHER– Educate participants

• Acceptable Use Policy• BYOD Statement of Use• Student/Parent Agreement Form

• SECURITY and DAMAGES– NOT THE TEACHER

• Integrity of teaching and learning process– Educate participants

• Acceptable Use Policy• BYOD Statement of Use• Student/Parent Agreement Form

Useful Analogies for Understanding How BYOD is Managed• The Tooth Brush – it’s something we

don’t share• The Parking Lot – we made the

space, protect it, and offer it, but there are lines, rules, and norms to be followed or use/access is not guaranteed

• The T-Shirt, Backpack and Locker – displayed images and the contents are subject to school rules and are susceptible to search
