  • the district shelved the idea when it became apparent that students preferred using their personal mobile devices and that the cost of buying and ­refreshing ­notebooks every three to four years would be ­prohibitive
  • surveyed the 155 eighth-graders ­participating in the pilot, they learned something ­interesting: Although students loved the idea of having their own computer to do their homework, 52 percent of them were using their personal computers rather than those issued by the school
  • IT department beefed up the wireless network in its two middle schools and the high school and standardized on a set of cloud-based applications
  • ...8 more annotations...
  • Google Apps' ­productivity and collaboration tools, and connect to the Moodle course management system, where they can access ­reading materials and other course ­content and participate in discussion forums and live chats.
  • To implement BYOD successfully, Gartner Research Director Bill Rust says every school must do the following:
  • Schools that are embracing BYOD are working to ­incorporate technology into their curriculum
  • Professional development also is helping educators learn new teaching techniques that are technology-centric
  • offers five blended high school courses in English and health education
  • Early BYOD Adopters Share Lessons Learned
  • Professional development is important. Hanover's educational technology staff holds a training session every Tuesday, Fry says. The district also built a wiki to educate teachers about using technology in the classroom.
  • Provide a buyer's guide.

  • for the most part, schools have incorporated these 21st century instructional techniques and tools as add-ons to the teacher-centric 19th century classroom structure, in which the majority of the curriculum is pulled from a textbook, and, despite best intentions, most students learn the same thing in the same way at the same time.
  • what exactly is personalized learning? And why is technology so central to its outcomes?
  • personalized learning as an instructional approach that encompasses both differentiation and individualization, but is also flexible in content or theme to match the specific interests and prior experiences of learners

  • “We should start where students’ weaknesses and shortcomings are and then seek strategies or techniques to help [teachers] understand those shortcomings.”
  • “But the heart of it has to be about planning for good instruction and evaluating teaching.”
