While investigating how digital devices can be used in schools I found a really great article on BYOD (bring your own device). It described some of the issues with students using their own devices and how a few schools are overcoming them. I found one school's methods of color coding different areas in their school as a visual reminder to students of the "acceptable use" policy. One color represented an open for all use, one for no use, one for limited use. It sounds like they have figured it out!

The guild assignment this week was to investigate the pros and cons of the three different setups for digital devices in school. They are: single-device classrooms, multiple device classrooms, technology carts, and technology laboratories. Included among the pros and cons were cost, supports, standardization, availability, and teacher skill level.
We also described our favorite blog. Sadly there were any aesthetic reasons why I chose my blog. It was purely for the great resources that are listed on it! My favorite blog is Free Tech for Teachers.
