Skype Meeting time and Possible themes for paper

Hey gang- We are running out of time so I propose that we have a 12:00 PM EST (noon) Skype meet time. We do not have everyone's skype address so that will be a problem. I have also not heard from a few members for a while. Hopefully they will see this message. This will translate to 10:00 AM Mountain time and 9:00 AM Pacific. Hopefully Doc will not mind getting up a little early for us.

Here are the possible Themes for our paper: (Thanks Wesley!) My suggestions are at the bottom.

What is BYOD?

·         Advantages

·         Disadvantage

·         What are some of the potential barriers to implementation?

What is one-to-one?

·         Advantages

·         Disadvantages

BYOD vs. One-to-one or a blended approach of both?

Potential models of BYOD

Proper Training for educators?

·         Preservice Training

·         Inservice Training or Professional Development

Digital Citizenship

·         Student training

·         Parent awareness

Security, access, and infrastructure

·         What devices are allowed or not allowed and what boundaries of use are put in place?

Considerations for implementing BYOD in the classroom:

·         Implementation Strategies

·         Infrastructure considerations

·         Learner interface concerns with BYOD

·         School interface concerns with BYOD

·         Designing curriculum for BYOD
