6. Windows8 “Windows Apps?”
In the Windows Store: Education (onderwijs)
However, interesting Edu Apps are not always in the Edu
category (and vice versa)
Using Search in the Store works best -
but some example Apps to start with might be useful

7. Windows8 “How to manage?”
If shared/un-personal device (eg preschool/primary)
 Configure 1 device with 1 generic user (eg pupil 1)
 Login into other devices with same user
 Sync between devices(up to 81 devices)
If personalized (shared or not unimportant: becausemultiuser per device possible) (eg
late primary and up)
 Option 1: let student configure device in guided session (white-listing might be needed)
 This approach is a good lesson in itself – for the student to learn, and for the teacher to ‘let
go’ control. (white listing here)
 Option 2: use management software
 Remote desktopapp (even on WindowsRT)
 VDI
 System Center Configuration Management
 Windows Intune (integration Office 365)
