13. BYOT DEVICE Management Since not every child will have a device, it will be important to consider how to structure the lesson to facilitate sharing. Assigning students to groups may be based on available devices and the task at hand. A group might consist of a student with an iPad, laptop, eReader, iPhone, and/or school owned device. Be aware of the limitations of each device. * Students will not have access to Network drive to save their work. * Printing will not be an option at this time. * Devices will not be able to e­mail student­created products.(Consider using gaggle.net)gaggle.net
