Which form factor is most appropriate for students, teachers and staff? Initial configuration Device Management Classroom Management Logistics Four device deployment considerations
Unmanaged to managed • Unmanaged—Users can install applications, change settings; little to no management tools used • Somewhat managed—Some management tools are used, but light on process and policy • Moderately managed—Tools and good processes and policies, but users can install software and change at least some settings • Locked down and well-managed—Intense use of tools, established processes and policies in place, users are locked down and cannot install software or change critical settings
Device Management • How will the device settings be configured? • How will the devices be protected from malware? • How will Operating System updates and patches be deployed to the device? • How will Apps and software be deployed to the devices? • Do the devices need to be wiped in case of loss of theft?
Managing Windows devices Governance Full Control Light Control Exchange ActiveSync Mobile Device Management via OMA-DM Enterprise Management • Windows 8 provides choices • Choose by device based on scenario or capabilities needed • Consider employee versus organization-owned, BYOD, connectivity • Organizations may choose all three
The more you trust a device, the more access you can give the device

What is classroom management software? • Students are using PCs and mobile devices in your classrooms. Classroom Management software enables the teacher to have control and management of what students are doing on these devices Usual features and requirements include: • Being able to view student screens to see what they are doing • Being able to control what students are doing on their devices • Being able to distribute and collect files from the teacher device to student devices • Being able to communicate via IM or polls with students • Being able to control internet access • Many, many other features
Transport logistics to schools • Unboxing and recycling • Teacher distribution • Student distribution (parents?) • Start up support • User support (day1/week1) • DEAD ON ARRIVAL? • Software/hardware/drivers Device deployment—logistics
Initial set up logistics • Wired connectivity • Desk space • Amount of rooms per school • Security of rooms • Power supply • Physical device labelling • Progress tracking
Designing and Implementing Technologies that effectively support learning How do I choose the most appropriate device for education? How are the devices going to be deployed, managed and controlled? Is the network infrastructure appropriate for a large scale device deployment? How will the technical solution be supported?
