At Oak Flats Public School the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policy initiative includes Stages 2 and 3.
Students in Stage 2 will be asked to bring an iPad to school each day. The potential for this device is that it can be integrated into the classroom to meet the learning outcomes of any lesson and become an everyday functional and communicative educational tool.
The iPad has an instantaneous start-up and is ready to use immediately, a long battery life, and is easily portable. In a classroom setting, there is essentially unlimited access to information, multimedia and learning activities. The iPad as a teaching resource, like all information technology, will ensure that students' learning can be taken into the future.
