Mission
To prepare
EVERY student
for learning, life,
and work
in the 21st century.
Our world has changed…
1. It is digital, flat, open and pluralistic.
2. It is unpredictable andvolatile.
3. It is increasingly unforgiving to those who are unskilled.
Less
paper,
more
pixels.
Less about
what device
you have,
more
about what
you do with it.
Less single source,
more
crowd
source.
In ONEGeneration…
From going out of your way to communicate - to going out of your way not to.
Shifting from Single Source to Crowd Source
Old School
“Read the part of Chapter 6 on the
Boston Massacre and be prepared to answer
questions.”
New School
1. Team One find 5 historical narratives by different authors
2. Team Two find 5 primary source documents from the trial
3. Team Three find 5 British history references and opinions
4. Team Four find 5contemporaneous editorials.
Less
just in case,
more
just in time.

What would an “open phone test” look like?
What happens when everyone can get
anything from anywhere?

Basic Principles of Planning
Engage and Empower – bring digital tools to every learner so they can find their own voice.
Prepare and Connect – use internet connectivity to help connect every student
and teacher to resources that support their goals.
Access and Enable – ensure that the infrastructure of the district can support all of
these strategies.

Job ONEis gettingto

Essential QuestionsWhich worries you more….
Continuing to perpetuate an analogue instructional model that is out of alignment with appropriate preparation for
the real world.
- or –
Managing the numerous challenges that come with a transition to a new model of provisioning instruction in
public schools.
Essential QuestionsWhich is more likely….
Your district will finally devote enough resources to buy every student an electronic device of their choosing…
- or –
You decide that the problems and inconveniences of the initial move are worth the aggravation of making the
switch to a BYOD based 1:1 instructional model
Why/Why Not BYOD?In support of…
• How else will you get to 1:1?
• Brings additional assets into the district.
• Allows for increased personalization.
• Moves the focus away from device choice and shifts it to device use.
• A growing sense of inevitability.
Wariness of…• Reduced control.
• Old provisioning methods do not apply.
• Some instructional inconvenience.
• Just another thing to manage in the midst of a million others.
• INCREASED inequity in non 1:1 applications.
• Other?
Until everyone can have the same thing, no one can have anything.
Equitably deficient.
A device gap
is less objectionablethan an access gap.
Moving Beyond Purchasing
Getting them is just the first step….
• Digital tools for learning are above all, an instructional magnifier.
• Big gaps in instructional quality, if unattended, will get bigger.
