This year, BYOD landed amongst the top 10 stories in Ed Tech for 2011, according to eSchool News.
As our first semester with BYOD comes to a close, I find it interesting to look at others perspectives on this trend, which is helping districts across the country save money on technology equipment.
You can find the eSchool news summary of the topic at http://www.eschoolnews.com/2011/12/15/the-10-biggest-ed-tech-stories-of-2011/10/?
It talks about the classroom management issue as well as other struggles that teachers and districts face when implementing this new paradigm. Also intereesting in this article is that it sites results from the Project Speak Up Survey, which we are asking our staff, students, parents, and administrators to take this year (see an earlier blog post)
