P. S. 10 looking forward...Ongoing professional development
Loaner iPad 1 devices - managed via Configurator
In process:
iPad 2 upgrade for all staff
not “new” - 16 GB iPad 2 @ $399 is a no brainer for us - “new” iPad doesn’t offer enough to disregard savings
existing iPad 1s recycled to Kindergarten
2 iPads per class for student use
Managment flexibility - via Configurator or teacher controlled
Applied for TeachingMatters.org Elizabeth Rohatyn Prize for School Innovation grant, NYC Reso-A grants...

Why do you want iPads?
Truly ask yourself that question.... why?
To keep up with the trend?
To invest in current technology?
Because they’re cool?
Because someone told you to?
Answer that question and it’ll be easier to answer the...

Who is the point person for the initiative?
Who orders, inventories, issues, etc...?
Who provides training?
Who are the users?
Who approves the purchases, designs the curriculum, issues the devices to users, provides training, provides tech support, uses them daily... might be many, might be one. Name names...

Where...?
Wednesday, July 31, 13
Where is this happening?
Identify necessary facilities...
Secure storage
Location to accept, prep, inventory & issue
Professional development site (real or virtual)
Use - library, lab, classrooms, carts...
Where isn’t just about where they’ll be used, it’s about where they’ll be stored when not in use, where staff will meet for PD, where tech support & updates will occur...
Wednesday, July 31, 13
How...?
Wednesday, July 31, 13
How...? The greatest of all
How will this happen?
Start-up funds - $$$
On-going funding - $$$
Organizing purchase, delivery, issuing, PD, etc
Staff buy-in: excited for use, excited for toy, annoyed at “additional responsibility”...?
You have figured the easy parts, now, how will you make it happen? How will you bring your plan to reality?

What - conferring & assessing, collaboration, communication
When - 9/10 test a few, 1/11 20 iPads to gr. 3-5, 6/11 all classroom teachers, 11/11 clusters (Art, Music)
