Of course, the teacher could always guide the discussion in the right direction, but allow the students to create the AUP themselves, creates ownership and a personal connection with the protocols and safety of their devices and themselves.Michael Fricano IIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14967580298874618249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26997187.post-79033762433212389572013-03-29T10:31:59.157-10:002013-03-29T10:31:59.157-10:00I appreciate the thought you have put into this de...I appreciate the thought you have put into this deployment, much to borrow and use!! I would challenge you on the use of a test for the AUP. I think this falls back too much on the teaching styles we are trying to get away from with students. I read in another blog where the students were responsible for crafting the AUP for their school. I like this collaborative approach.<br /><br />KeithAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26997187.post-61866310653257573682013-03-25T18:51:48.753-10:002013-03-25T18:51:48.753-10:00Michael, this write up could be helpful for many s...Michael, this write up could be helpful for many schools considering 1:1 initiatives with Google apps. We have begun the process at my high school by starting in science classes. I started using Google plus in December when Goovle first made it available for the educarion domains. This tool alone has significantly raised the level of discussion jn my classes.<br /><br />It didn't occur to me just hw different Googlw plus is from a blog until I put it ti use.<br /><br />Sorry about typos.

You make a good point about providing PD before receiving the technology, and I agree with you, that it would definitely be tough for teachers to implement without having it in their classrooms yet.<br /><br />I think in our case, the DOE will just throw the devices in our laps and provide the PD alongside the deployment, which will be a good thing for the teachers.Michael Fricano IIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14967580298874618249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26997187.post-26325555543227514492013-03-25T08:23:59.075-10:002013-03-25T08:23:59.075-10:00Great post. I think your last point about teachers...Great post. I think your last point about teachers receiving PD prior to the 1:1 is a tricky one. I agree that the foundation needs to be established, and thinking needs to occur about how the technology is going to alter/transform the learning environment, but it is really tough to do if you don't have the ability to go back to your classroom and implement that new learning. Sometimes I think there is a disconnect if you are learning about 1:1 learning, but you are not able to go and do it.<br /><br />Now, the pre-1:1 PD could certainly be centered around teacher use of GAFE (Drive especially), and just how technology (the web especially) can be utilized to enhance learning and that would be extremely beneficial for teachers. <br /><br />We are 1:1 with Chromebooks in grades 9-12, and will add grades 6-8 next year, and grades 3-5 the year after. I will be interested to read about the journey you guys are embarking on.Devinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12790558061750131015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26997187.post-32062635842811538052013-03-23T05:33:45.304-10:002013-03-23T05:33:45.304-10:00I am in the process of developing our own professi...I am in the process of developing our own professional development for Esparto K-8, California.

I agree ...Michael, great post of your observations. I agree with Jennifer, very useful information in your post.<br /><br />I like the idea of the AUP test and PD for the teachers. I'm also requiring teachers if they want to use the Mobile labs to attend PD first before they can use them. I also think the idea of extensive development of sensitivity towards cyberbullying and Internet safety is essential. I have been doing this is my classes and encouraging others to do the same.<br /><br />Thanks for your insightsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26997187.post-90389104873557428682013-03-22T16:49:39.990-10:002013-03-22T16:49:39.990-10:00Michael, Thank you for sharing your observations. ...Michael, Thank you for sharing your observations. There were some great ideas in there. I've taught with 1:1 for six years and I've been wondering what it must be like to just be getting started with it. I'm thinking of proposing a session for CUE next year about how 1:1 changes teaching and learning. Please keep writing about how the 1:1 roll out goes for your school. @TheJenRobertshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02156539976035751361noreply@blogger.com
