=**1:1 Schools Considering iPad Programs**=
 * iPad (Friends Seminary, Princeton Academy) || Chrome Books (St. Ann's) ||
 * * richer app selection (ex:Subtext)
 * Doesn't work seemlessly for Google Apps for Ed (spreadsheets just workable, doens't work with Drive)
 * File management an issue? Is that a big deal? Is tech going to work saved within an app anyway?
 * Casper
 * Student owned and managing the iPad vs. the school- Coppa??? Distraction issues...
 * Teachers were happier with locked down iPads. Parent permission to lock down - disable permission to download from App Store. Should they be student controled or locked down? What are teaching students by locking it down? Student empowerment.
 * Is Configurator the way to go?
 * Management and deployment tools are not as smooth as laptops
 * Bill Stiles Blog- talks about all the options on configuring iPads || * Google Apps Device
 * Pixilar instead of Photoshop
 * WeVideo for web video services (collaboration. Hooks into Google Drive) ||

What does a laptop offer that iPads/Chrome Books don't? Local storage space, more robust programs (Photoshop

Hiearchial structure file management vs. Search (Google Drive)? Put client on machines and upload to drive. Instead of emailing attachmennts, link to drive documents and give editing rights.

BYOD model has had varying success. Poughkeepsie Day(6-12) has had a good experience. Google App School. Other schools have not had as positive an experience with BYOD. Another school has a BYOD for 11th and 12th grade. They're a 1:1 laptop school beginning in 8th grade. Now they are considering BYOD for 8-12. Equity an issue.

Platform change discussion has sparked a discussion as to what they do in their classroom. Full faculty discussion regardless of changing their platform. Teachers though need to accept a loss of control to some degree.
