Bring Your Own Device Bring Your Own Device This is a boring PowerPoint, but an exciting new opportunity!
Why are we doing this? • Start to use technology now in the ways you will when you leave Skyview for a job, college or life. • Give you more choices in the way you use technology in the classroom • Learn about how wifi access and use of personal devices can help you learn • Because it’s AWESOME.
Who gets what? Go Storm! • Pilot at three schools (Skyview, River, Alki) • District-filtered wi-fi access to the Internet • There is no support for any apps or applications on your devices by teachers or the district. • If your app or device works, great! • If it doesn't, look it up on the Internets. • You can always ask Mr. Ray or Mrs. Miller…they might be able to help you.
The choices • Parent choices: • To allow you to bring or not to bring • Student choices: • To bring or not to bring • Teacher choices: • To allow use in class or not allow in class • Teachers CANNOT require students to have or bring devices to class
Who's responsible? • Bring devices at your own risk • This means that if you bring a device, you are responsible for keeping it safe and secure • Do not leave your device in a classroom, even if the teacher allows it • You are responsible for the appropriate use of your personal computing device
Digital Social Contract • Doesn’t take place of district policies or state laws concerning use of technology at school. • “Rules of the Road” for using technology at school • Core statement: As a student, I am responsible for the choices I make when I use technology.
The Contract • I am responsible for keeping my personal computer devices secure when I bring them to school. • On your body, in your backpack, in your locker 2. I am responsible for keeping my digital accounts secure. • Usernames and passwords are your property. Keep them safe and private.
The Contract 3. I am responsible for what I do when using technology at school. • Don’t blame the iPod. 4. I am responsible for not hurting the ability of others to learn. • When you disrupt class, send nasty texts, surf inappropriate sites and show your friends, you are hurting others’ ability to learn.
The Contract 5. I am responsible for what I say and do online. • Be nice, fair and truthful about things you text, post, discuss or share online. 6. I am responsible for giving credit where credit is due and respecting the intellectual property of others. • Cite sources and give credit where credit is due.
The Contract 7. I am responsible for making good choices about when and where I use personal devices at school. If I don’t... • First offense: Put it away for the rest of the period • Second offense: Take it away for the rest of the day • Additional offenses: Go away: progressive discipline…as in you could go away….
Some basic questions • Are parents or students expected to buy an iPad? Sorry, but NO • Can I use my device anytime I want to? That would be a NO • Can my teacher tell me when and where I can use devices in class? YES • Can my teacher expect everyone to have a device in their class? Absolutely NO
How do I get on? • Select the “BYOD” network on your device • You won’t be able to connect to the others…really…give up now.
How do I get on? • If you don’t see get this screen, open up a web browser on your device. (Safari, Firefox, Explorer) • That will prompt this window. • Use same username and password you would use to connect with a POC at school (Plain Old Computer) • Username = ID# • Password = password
How do I stay on? • If you don’t use the network for a period of time, you will get timed out. • But you can save your username and password so that you’re just ‘one click’ from connecting again. • Again, teachers and staff cannot support your device if it doesn’t work. Ask a fellow student!
