7. Why allow BYOD?
(bring your own device) :)
BUT...
*They are powerful computers
*They are instant recording labs
*They are an organizational tool
*They can be used ‘on demand’
*Students already have them
*Students already know how to use them
*It’s not allowed at my school
*Not all students have one
*Students will cheat
*It will be a distraction
*Students will use them when they
aren’t supposed to
8. My 2 cents
Mange BYOD like you
would any other
classroom
management issue
9. Which tools should I use?
FIRST, decide
what you want
to do…
THEN pick the right
tool
10. Formative assessments
Use BYOD in formative assessments to
inform instruction, identify potential gaps
in knowledge or misunderstandings, and
encourage student self reflection on what
they know.
Some good tools for this - Poll Everywhere,
Socrative, Padlet, and Infuse Learning.
