Prizeworthy Panelists • Christopher Brendel • Stephanie Cerda • Maria Harrington • Sandy Fivecoat (moderator)
What is BYOT? • BRING = mobile, un-tethered, always accessible • YOUR = you choose what works best for you • OWN = financial, accountability, personal responsibility, respectful use • TECHNOLOGY = any tool(s) that get the job done From EdNet Insight Report on BYOT, 2012
Wireless Networks a High Priority From EdNet Insight BYOT report, 2012
Bring Your Own Network? “In our parental notifications we tell them that we provide a filtered, safe network. But if parents purchase unfiltered network access, there is no way to prevent students from using it. If parents bought it for them and allow it, what’s the difference between using it at 2:55 or 3:05?” Kathy Rains, Decatur City schools
Student-Owned Devices Policy Implications Source: EdNet report, 2013
“Responsible” vs “Acceptable” Use Policy “Responsible use lets teachers and districts spend less time confiscating devices and more time teaching digital citizenship.” EdNet Insight BYOT report, 2012
Instructional Implications? “When you begin your BYOT initiative, realize that teachers and students will naturally move back and forth among [these] uses of their technology tools. If teachers do not have a goal for BYOT or provide opportunities for students to own the learning, they [students] will sometimes just stop bringing their devices to school.” Tim Clark, Forsyth County Schools, BYOT Network
Other Drivers • Proliferation of smartphones • Acceptance and expectations by parents • Frozen or declining budgets for technology purchase • Rapid obsolescence of school-owned technology, and lack of funds to upgrade Source: EdNet BYOT report, 2012
Professional Development “In a BYOT learning environment, teachers require less technology training on specific devices and more help shifting their pedagogy to inquiry-based lessons.” Source: EdNet BYOT report, 2012
What About Cheating? • 26% of high school students save information from notes and textbooks to their phone to access during tests. • 17% take photos of test questions and answers to share with others. • 20% use their phones to search the Internet for test answers From eCampus News article
Another Perspective • Students engage in content creation (creating notes for help on a test). • Students collaborate and communicate to solve problems (saving test answers to work on them together). • Students apply critical thinking to research answers online.
Best Practices • Establish clear expectations • Use cell phones as clickers (e.g., Poll Everywhere) • Send students on a scavenger hunt using cameras • Make lessons relevant using audio and video recording • Be flexible; use BYOD to enhance proven teaching methods From WeAreTeachers blog “5 Ways to make BYOD work for you”
