Instead of a school purchasing an iPad and keyboard for all the students, what about a Chromebook and Nexus 7 for each student? A Chromebook starts at $300 and the Nexus 7 starts at $200. Account management is very easy with the Chromebooks and Nexus 7 using Google accounts for each student. That''s a great deal.

The goal of digital equity is to ensure that all students have access to devices, high-speed internet, and opportunities to learn both in school and out.

As a huge #edcamp fan, I’m down for some self directed PD as a break from the overwhelmingness that can be CUE. IT stuff like wireless access, chromebooks and Google Apps domains come to mind. A group of passionate educators that were also passionate about technology. That is sure to be an awesome amazing show.

We are all well aware of the fact that the gaming industry spends exponentially more money on research and development than our education departments. They didn’t have Genius Hour, 20% time, Chromebooks, Google Apps, Kahoot, iMovie, podcasting or even Flipped Classrooms. We can help by giving them access to various tools and materials.

My first job in education was at a small rural high school district. Google Apps for Education. In California, the best way to approach this is to work with the County Office of Education (COE) on getting the most bandwidth a district can afford/qualify for. We installed a Meraki Access Point in every classroom.
