http://www.eduwebinar.com.au This presentation addresses the lessons that research from across the Western world has garnered from the pathfinding schools. These schools have chosen their model of BYOT, implemented it and transitioned from their present situation to a successful 100% student uptake. Mal will also discuss a model of ‘benefits realisation’ all schools can use everyday in a time of rapid change to adjudge the impact of their BYOT implementation upon the school, its teaching and its resourcing.

4. BYOT - Definition
Bring your own technology (BYOT) is an educational
development and a supplementary school technology
resourcing model where the home and the school
collaborate in arranging for the young’s 24/7/365
use of their own digital technology/ies to be
extended into the classroom to assist their teaching
and learning and the organisation of their schooling
and where relevant the complementary education
outside the classroom.
