Everything from code makers to ideas for use in the classroom to a way to use them for scavenger hunts (which is pretty cool too.) Tablets- It''s going to be tough to find anyone who would argue that Tablet did not increase in use in education this year. BYOD can help. What a pretty nifty idea. Still don''t believe me?

Nguyen talked with EdSurge about how to support schools with bring your own device (BYOD) programs, why SSO boosts security, and how it saves his teachers 2500 hours of instruction time each month. So we got some very passionate phone calls and lost a lot of time in the classroom. Plus, we’re a BYOD environment. So many things.

Then there is his younger sister who will regularly ask to use my iPad so she can either care for her virtual horse or dress Barbies in creative ways. Not only do many have access, but also older children possess their own devices (cell phones, smart phones, laptops, tablets, e-readers, etc.). What are your thoughts on BYOT in schools?

One of education’s hottest buzzwords these days is g amification: the integration of games into classroom instruction to enhance student learning. What if your students don’t all have iPads? And they can respond using a smartphone, a laptop or a tablet, which makes it fantastic for BYOD classrooms.

Most teachers use some technology in the classroom, but how many use it beyond the walls of the classroom? One question raised during LTT2013 was whether tablets were going to end up as the latest pile of classroom junk, purchased for the sake of it, without any defined objectives or problems to solve.

In a classroom, a teacher calls on one student after another but no student is active all the time; only those who are called on are active. Often in a classroom, the teacher goes over the material until everyone has learned it. Good mobile learning practice apps facilitate and transform learning.

Let’s see if 2016 doesn’t see more tv-studio-style classrooms. I expect to see numerous stories along these lines in 2016. Even academics.

I believe every parent should receive a list of apps used in the classroom so parents can download them and provide additional support at home. If your school has mixed devices or is investigating going BYOD, then choosing apps that are cross-platform will make that experience far less painful. If not, why not?

Of course, part of the reason most schools switch to 1:1 is because they want the classroom to reflect the real world—and anticipate what jobs could be when the kindergartners graduate. This gives them time to familiarize themselves with it, take advantage of PD, work with their planning teams, and prepare themselves for their new classroom.

One of the great things about mobile devices such as tablets, iPads and phones is that most modern devices have good quality cameras and microphones built in. This kind of cross platform compatibility is really important if you are working in a BYOD environment where students could be coming to class with a wide range of devices.
