  6. Suggestions for Planning and Implementing a BYOD Program

  7. Develop a Team • It is important to develop a team that will help implement the use of BYOD and WiFi within the school. • This team should include many different stakeholders to provide as many perspectives as possible to help grow the program.

  8. Communicate with Stakeholders • Connect with the staff, students, parents, and community to announce the beginning of the BYOD program. • Use an end-of-year newsletter and the school website to reach as many people as possible. • Parents will want to know in advance, so they can purchase devices.

  9. Identify a Goal • By creating a goal for the BYOD program, there will be a focus for professional development and integration into curriculum around one unifying objective. • The administrative team and BYOD committee can frame all plans within this goal and it will help keep all stakeholders focused.

  10. Identify a Goal • EXAMPLES • To use classroom technology to engage students in asking questions and choosing tools to facilitate real world problem solving. • To effectively integrate technology into curricular objectives. • To transform learning in the classroom through the use of technology. • Encourage innovation.

  11. Synthesize a Plan • When synthesizing a plan for BYOD at the school, consider planning a “BYOD Night” or “Tech Night” into the calendar, or integrate these ideas into an existing function at the school that involves parents and community members. • The plan should be tailored to the BYOD goal and the school’s vision.

  12. Measure Success • This step should actually be worked into the synthesis of the plan, but it’s too important to not have its own section. • There must be a way to measure success and progress within the plan. • What does success mean for your program?

  13. Measure Success

  14. Integrate into Curriculum • The final piece of a successful BYOD launch is to work with the staff and digital leaders at the school to integrate BYOD into existing curriculum and create new curriculum around the program. • Creating a climate where taking chances and innovating with technology is celebrated will go a long way in building buy-in and support for the program.

  15. Final Thought “We also do not force anyone to implement BYOD, because we realize that every learning community needs a different amount of time to adopt the initiative. Also we [provide support] in every school to help model instruction with BYOD for teachers and assist in developing new strategies for the use of devices.” http://www.k12blueprint.com/BYOD
