  1. 1-to-1Proof of Concept2010

  2. Galvin Park Secondary College • Anticipated enrolments 2011: 1009 • Years 9-12: 725 • SFO: 0.69 • Participation Rate in Parent Opinion Survey 2010: 14%

  3. May 2010 • Invited to participate in the NSSCF Round 3: Proof of Concept Pilot objective – 1-to-1 ratio Years 9-12 Simple guidelines: • No co-contribution from parents • 1-to-1 ratio to be achieved by Dec 2011 • eduSTAR platform to be installed • Program to complement ULTRANET rollout

  4. Immediate complications • the funding that was to follow was to COMPLIMENT the funding that had been received in round 2.1 – objective = 1:2 ratio years 9-12 • GPSC (together with local network) had already committed to a 1-to-1 program 2011 – with a co-contribution requirement from parents following Network PD with Bruce Dixon.

  5. What if’s! Questions began to flow- • Damage? • Theft? • Insurance? • Storage? • Power? • Tech support? • Budgets/purchasing?

  6. What did a successful ‘1-to-1’ netbook program • Look like? • Feel like? • Sound like? .......at Galvin Park?

  7. PARTICIPATION • Parental involvement “parents as partners” - signing of agreements, attendance at info sessions compulsory. • Teacher buy-in– implementation, improving own capacities, policy implementation, on-going evaluation of program • Effective creation of relationship between netbook, Ultranet and eduSTAR • Student engagement – respect (equipment, policies, each other)

  8. CLARITY • Effective ‘branding’ • School Council support (long history) • Who? When? Why? • Contacts • Information points • Budgets – any hidden costs? • VISION to take us forward.

  9. ACCOUNTABILITY • Damage? • Theft? • Insurance? • eBooks? • Exits/Enrolments? • Student Engagement Policy to incorporate digital devices

  10. PARTICIPATION CLARITY ACCOUNTABILITY CHALLENGE: MAKING THESE KEY OBJECTIVES ACHIEVABLE

  11. ANSWER: 21 steps to success

  12. PLANNING • Steps 1-8 • Most important for us: Step 2: Establish eLearning vision for 1:1 • Answers the questions of how should this look, feel and sound • Consulted staff groups • Presented to whole staff and communicated to parents • Appears on all 1:1 documentation

  13. Sample eLearning Vision Statement: “each student at our school learns to develop and demonstrate the knowledge, skills, practices and attitudes necessary to be an engaged, robust 21st century citizen capable of shaping our future”

  14. PLANNING • Steps 1-8 • Most important for us: Step 4: Develop a communication strategy • Identify stakeholders. Parents, students, wider community (public profile & reputation – including primary feeders),School Council

  17. PLANNING • Steps 1-8 • Most important for us: ADDITIONAL STEP – MOST CRITICAL FOR GPSC: BRANDING

  18. BRANDING • Immediate identification of program • Gives the program it’s own ‘life’ • Makes the program ‘real’ • Helps to align ALL 1:1 programs across the College

  19. PREPARATION • Steps 9-16 • Most important for us: Step 10: Professional Learning • On-going delivery of ICT training through teams

  20. PREPARATION • Steps 9-16 • Most important for us: Step 12: Software tools and on-line resources • Moving from traditional text books to eBooks (7-10 and where possible 11-12) • Direct conversations with publishers – relationship with bookseller changes • Site licence decisions • GPSC – equity issues due to demographics • Improved teacher ‘buy-in’ with all students accessing resources

  21. PREPARATION • Steps 9-16 • Most important for us: Step 14: Calculate the total cost of participation • Know your families – will they reimburse for damage? Replacement? • Develop a realistic contingency • Other extra’s – skins, swing tags, USB’s, site licences, power supplies, ghosting software, additional tech support.

  22. PREPARATION • Steps 9-16 • Most important for us: Step 15: Support Documentation • anticipate the questions and have the answers (step 16) • prepare user agreements and insist on their return with a parent signature before device is distributed • prepare parent/student letters for breaches of agreement • Alignment with our Student Engagement Policy

  23. IMPLEMENTATION • Steps 17-20 • Most important for us: Step 18-Conduct Parent sessions Step 20-Distribute student devices • Year 9: Parent info sessions, signing of agreement, distribution of device – all on same evening • Years 10-12:Parent info session, signing of agreement, distribution 2 weeks later on re-enrolment day

  24. IMPLEMENTATION • Steps 17-20 • Most important for us: Step 19-IT Infrastructure and support • Development of a ‘asset management system’ – for distribution of devices. • Development of a student “tech support crew” • Wiki - troubleshooting

  26. How to Import Users There are two ways the Asset Manager can import users: • Via the Student Management Tool (Xtreme Software) • From cases (via a CSV import feature) Netbooks are created on the fly once a new loan is created or manually via the ‘New Netbook’ feature. A CSV Netbook import utility is currently in development. Developed by Nick Vierros
