At EdcampCT this past week, I was chatting with Greg McVerry ( @jgmac1106 ) about devices, 1-1 and BYOD and he made an interesting comment. Instead of a school purchasing an iPad and keyboard for all the students, what about a Chromebook and Nexus 7 for each student? This post originally appeared on Educational Technology Guy.

It is a one-stop shop for all things education and ed-tech. For the Apple users out there, there is an iPhone/iPad application , as well. We are also using ClassLink here at NMHS as a cloud-based Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) solution. It is a fantastic resource for schools looking to streamline their BYOD initiatives.

He had connected an iPad to a wireless AppleTV and the television to a computer projector. This allowed the teacher to instruct his students using the iPad. The wireless connection between the iPad and the Apple TV gave him the freedom to move around his classroom. Most schools have bans on cell phones and like technology.

Recently, I found myself entangled with several people in a Twitter debate about whether BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) policies actually perpetuate or aggravate the digital divide our students currently experience. Having a BYOD policy would seem to perpetuate the divide between the tech-haves and tech-have-nots.

While most of the world has been and is being transformed by technological advances — more numerous and more diverse than data storage — there’s at least one part of our modern society that seems to be lagging behind: the educational system. As long as there are pens and paper, education can happen. Technology is there.

The concept of 1:1 has been around for quite a while, but didn’t quite catch on until recently, the major driver behind this being the increasing availability of devices and general change in education. 1:1 education means that each and every student gets a device (usually a laptop) with preloaded programs and textbooks.

One of the fastest ways to kill an educator''s enthusiasm for infusing technology is mandate a specific technology or specific program. We all have specific needs, tastes and desires, and a program that satisfies mine will not necessarily satisfy the next educators. But, some educators despise it. For example, I like Evernote.
