Ning 1:1 tools free cost

shared by Michael Walker on 20 Apr 10 - Cached

As I mentioned, sometimes solutions that seem inexpensive can be deceptively costly.  For example, a school that doesn’t take the time to do a full wireless survey before implementing a 1:1 program and just drops in APs in every room will likely end up with poor service and a lot of frustration for everyone involved.  A school that adopts a piece of hardware or operating system before a thorough evaluation of other options available could end up with a ton of incidental costs or face an unnecessarily limited curriculum.

I think iPod Thursday is an innovative and creative way to start to make the tech integration in our schools that we all know we need. The AP had many good refective questions that they should look for answers for as they go forward. One that was suspiciously absent, and the one that our discussion at the 8th grade meeting was really about, was equity. He cites iPod thursday as a "perk for all," but is it really benefitting all? I know that even in Edina, mp3 players of any kind are not 100% ubiquitous. The subtext of our 8th grade conversation was less about actual iPods, and more about continuing to address the growing social, racial and economic tensions that have been evident this year and are affecting student learning and achievement--things we've been discussing in our meetings all year.

Nicole, Thanks for expanding on this! Do you think if the district were to change the model of allowing kids to bring their own laptop that we would only increase the "inequity" even if those without had a district supplied device that may not be as "flashy" or full featured as what some could afford?
