@BartVerswijvel That's a nice way to smoothly introduce BYOD at school. #LSLCHAT

Here's a great website by @TeachersFirst on the tools that work on any devices #lslchat http://t.co/trHPJMsZik

#lsl_eu Primary school from Cyprus asked students to bring devices for specific activity on 1 afternoon. What do you think of this? #lslchat

Hi @BartVerswijvel @eu_schoolnet, hi all. I'm Natasa Ljubic Klemse, primary school teacher from Croatia. Yes, I have my own device #lslchat
Ben Bastiaensen @bbastiaensen
@ronsst @BartVerswijvel Do learning goals have to be bound to devices or textbooks? Can be, but don't have to in my opinion. #LSLCHAT
Stig Svensson @Stig3kids
No school shall not ask them to buy same device, the publishers must ajust material for different platforms #lslchat
Marie-Leet Bens @BensBel
@bbastiaensen @BartVerswijvel School can try to make a good offer to buy devices together though #lslchat
Steven Ronsijn @ronsst
@BartVerswijvel #lslchat BYOD will probably only work, if all same devices, because of same learning goals.
Ben Bastiaensen @bbastiaensen
@BartVerswijvel I think this is a pedagogical decission a school has to take. Same is selecting the right textbooks or software. #LSLCHAT
Marie-Leet Bens @BensBel
@BartVerswijvel School can't ask to buy the same device. My opinion... #lslchat
Ben Bastiaensen @bbastiaensen
@Stig3kids #LSLCHAT Maybe @eu_schoolnet can play a role in convincing insurance companies and/or @EU_Commission to do something about it.
Bart Verswijvel @BartVerswijvel
So what do you think? Should school ask students to buy the same device (instead of books) or give freedom? #lslchat

#lslchat hope so much with devises use, because of emulation between students... And they think that school open her mind to their own world
Marie-Leet Bens @BensBel
@abfromz @BartVerswijvel Used it for French Foreign Language as a reward. Those who finished their task could play French (!) Game #lslchat
Ben Bastiaensen @bbastiaensen
@BartVerswijvel luckily not. But did have questions from concerned parents about it. before BYOD takes of this must be solved. #LSLCHAT
Stig Svensson @Stig3kids
Well, they rather use the school-laptop (old) than risking their own to be broken #lslchat
Ben Bastiaensen @bbastiaensen
@BensBel @BartVerswijvel social exclusing is even bigger issue here. Also fear that pupils will do everything except school stuff. #LSLCHAT

#lslchat I ask my headteacher if possible to buy 6 galaxy tab, and surprise, she said yes !
Bart Verswijvel @BartVerswijvel
@bbastiaensen and you had problems already with e.g. stolen devices? #lslchat
Bart Verswijvel @BartVerswijvel
@Stig3kids You would think that students are more advanced in this? #lslchat
Arjana Blazic @abfromz
@BartVerswijvel well, can't say i have lots of experience, but i use BYOD as often as possible #lslchat
tree europe @tree_europe
#lslchat I agree with you, we have to experiment even if there are obstacles !
Ben Bastiaensen @bbastiaensen
Other topic for discussion in BYOD @ our school: insurance. Students' devices are NOT covered by school insurance. #LSLCHAT How in rest EU?
Bart Verswijvel @BartVerswijvel
#lslchat What can we learn from schools with experience? Please share!
tree europe @tree_europe
#lslchat and is there also probems with students parents?
Steven Ronsijn @ronsst
#lslchat What about students without (the newest) device?
Ben Bastiaensen @bbastiaensen
@BensBel @BartVerswijvel If pure knowledge is teachers' goal, than these watches are a problem. Otherwise ... ? #LSLCHAT
Ben Bastiaensen @bbastiaensen
@BartVerswijvel Since this year internet is free for all devices. limited bandwith to avoid downloading and use gets monitored. #LSLCHAT
tree europe @tree_europe
#lslchat perhaps we have to imagine pedagical charter for that
Ben Bastiaensen @bbastiaensen
@abfromz @BensBel Don't agree. We saved 15 x 500€ by forcing pupils to bring own laptop. With this money you can have a nice Wifi. #LSLCHAT
Stig Svensson @Stig3kids
Our school is ready to BYOD, but our students dont. #lslchat
Arjana Blazic @abfromz
@BensBel Yes, It is very expensive, yes #lslchat, we only have it in our future classroom
Ben Bastiaensen @bbastiaensen
@mgeorgiad @dorocas Hi Maria, nice to hear from you. Don't forget to use the #LSLCHAT hashtag.
