A portable personal computer for every student is now becoming a reality, opening
up many new possibilities for teaching and learning. But what is the best way to
transform a traditional classroom into a 1-to-1 environment and take advantage of
all the educational resources available? This conference, now in its third year,
is a two day intensive workshop designed to address the issues imperative to decision
makers when considering adopting or in the process of implementing a 1-to-1 technology
program.
The conference will discuss the educational imperative to move toward 1-to-1 classrooms
and the impact that every student having their own device can have on curriculum
opportunities. It will delve into issues associated with funding and how to establish
a long-term sustainable program, and will also look at higher level strategic considerations
that can make or break a 1-to-1 program, talk about how to develop effective policies
and discuss emerging trends leaders need to be aware of for future planning. The
program also includes a joint case study with a Computelec and a school who have
recently implemented a 1-to-1 student notebook program. The case study will offer
an honest and interesting insight into what worked and problems encountered and
will provide advice for implementation in your own school. There are also a number
of curriculum-based, hands-on workshops throughout the program designed to give
teachers some new and exciting ideas for the classroom.
