About This Guidebook
Students live in an on-demand, technology-dependent world. They learn differently and approach schoolwork differently than students did even a few years ago.This impacts learning, and some school districts are addressing students’ need to get answers instantly, to communicate as they learn, and to create information and share it with others. With 1:1 computing and wireless Internet access, students are able to learn in an environment where technology brings subjects to life and where students can own their learning environment and are so engaged that learning is meaningful. Establishing this new environment for such learning takes careful planning and consideration. We hope that the information in this guidebook provides you with useful advice, best practices and practical strategies.
While the success of any plan depends on individual goals, environments, planning, and personnel, certain strategies and ways of thinking emerge as universal. We address these issues in this guidebook to help create and implement an effective 1:1 initiative. In simple terms, the issues are planning, leadership, funding, infrastructure, professional development, instruction, evaluation, and sustainability.
Establishing well-defined goals and objectives is one of the most important components in implementing an effective 1:1 computing program. The key as you begin the goal setting process is to focus around student learning and aligning your technology policies and instructional supports with them in mind. We hope that the advice in this guidebook provides you with useful guidance, best practices and practical strategies.
