Bring Your Own Device
One of my previous posts was about schools cellphone use policy. I had a comment about BYOD. I just read an article titled "Bring Your Own Device Saves Companies Money - But Could Cost Users Big." I never really thought about this idea in the business world or in the school environment. However, I think it is a pretty good idea. I think bringing your own device to school is an interesting idea. I think it could be hard to monitor, but if students did not take advantage of the idea it could really help to low technology costs. Of the school that are doing this "BYOD," how are you monitoring it and is it working well?

Ha! That was me! I think I have beaten my principal down enough over the last couple of weeks . He has agreed to allow BYOD in our school! He is still against using cell phones, but thinks its a great idea to allow students to bring in their own laptops, ipads, and tablets. My plan is to contact the teachers from Kingsford High School who do BYOD and find out what works for them. Each teacher had their own classroom rules regarding BYOD and cell phone useage. I am hoping to get a copy of some of their classroom rules so I can plan my own.
