Teaching in action – examples to share

Hearing what BYOD can do for students

November20

I love the messages in this video – from students, teachers and the Principal. While these students are using Chrome Books, the philosophy behind this supports any model of BYOD.  What a lucky school to have the support of this trust to enable this to happen for their kids.  The benefits are obvious and the school and it’s community are appreciative of the backing of the trust in order for this to happen.

BYOD @ OIS

August12

Tomorrow is an auspicious occasion at OIS – our first day of BYOD. This has been a three year plan – putting the reliable infrastructure into place, ensuring systems in classrooms are set up for teachers and students, as well as the informing and education of the parents.

BYOD is implemented in different schools for different reasons. This little video sums up our approach simply.

WHY BYOD?

Here too is a simple little summary by our Year 8 Team leader Frances
Why BYOD @ OIS?

While there has been a lot of planning going on in the background now the exciting part begins:
How will this change teaching in classrooms?
How will students respond to having their own device in class?
What challenges (pedagogically) will teachers have?

I’m going to look to post updates here in order to record our journey.

I’ve also been collecting resources – some I’ve used, some I’m still to view – but there is a wide range of material on my wiki
