Case: The trouble with technology
iPads have recently been issued to all 8th graders in the county. As is typical of any middle schooler some of the students have found their way around the firewalls and are facebooking during class. They have learned to watch where you are in the classroom and although you have never actually "caught" them you know what they are doing. How do you deal with this situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would stress that using technology is a privilege, not a right. My school requires students and parents to sign a BYOT paper at the beginning of the year that makes them promise to use the technology for instructional purposes only. A violation of this contract could mean them losing their ability to utilize technology. Is it possible to use technology in stations only? That way you can have those stations directly by you. Usually when I tell my kids they can get their technology taken away, they take it more seriously. |

| Comments: I really like the idea of having the students sign a contract. It informs them of the rules for the use of the technology and of the consequences if they break those rules. The actual, physical aspect of signing it makes it that much more real and important to the students. |

| Comments: If I were in this situation, I would do this because it would make the students aware that technology does not have to be incorporated in the classroom all the time. Abuse of technology could also revoke their privilege. |
