Why BYOD?
Why BYOD?
"If we teach today as we taught yesterday, we rob our children of tomorrow" - John Dewey
"Bring your own device" (BYOD) refers to a technology model that allows students to bring their own devices to school for learning in the classroom.
Using digital technologies:
Allows for learning to expand beyond the 4 walls of the classroom, both in the community and internationally.
Students learn in relevant, real-world 21st-century contexts.
Allows students and teachers to learn, create, share, and collaborate anywhere, at any time.
Opens up a new world of resources for students, providing much more knowledge than any one teacher or school library could hope.
Increased communication between home and school.
Fading of 9 am to 3 pm school day as devices and learning are taken home.
Increased engagement from learners.
Future-ready students.
Personalised instruction and learning.
All of these factors add up to more students being present to learn in the classroom and beyond – engaged, enjoying learning, and achieving better results.
