Mobile devices and applications have become more prominent in the classroom, as BYOD and 1-1 initiatives have enabled students to bring their smartphones, tablets, and laptops to school for educational use. This influx of wireless devices has made the performance, reliability, security, and cost of managing wireless networks ever more paramount. As a result, schools now require “enterprise-grade” wireless networks – those that are managed centrally, locally secured, and offer sophisticated features for scaling the network throughout their buildings, campuses, and districts. However, these features tend to be scarce or altogether absent in most of the consumer-grade wireless APs that many schools have installed in the past because of their low, sticker costs. In this session, you’ll learn how to prepare for the diversity and explosion of mobile devices and applications in education in terms of scalability, service survivability, integration, application control, and Simpli-Fi-cation with Aerohive’s distributed Wi-Fi and routing solutions.
This panel discussion will highlight our student run technology help desk that was proposed two years ago as a new course to help support the 1:1 iPad initiative. Attendees will learn the steps needed to build a student technology help desk course, how to build the curriculum to align with common core standards, and receive a first hand account of our course from our students. Attendees will leave this session with a comprehensive understanding of how to find in house resources to support a large scale 1:1 initiative, how to integrate a student technology help desk, and how to use students as a resource for professional development.
This year you have more devices on the network, each wanting access to different network applications. Everyone says their network application is “Priority #1”. How can your infrastructure support all these new requests securely without swamping your Internet pipe or your day? We’ll explore how Dell SonicWALL’s Next Generation Firewall solution can identify network applications and allow you to create policies to prioritize good network applications, block those you don’t want on your wired and wireless network, and bandwidth shape everything in between. We’ll even discuss directory integration so the superintendent’s network applications really are “Priority #1”.
Come see the new and improved EDW and why over 2,000 users ran 172,814 in the first 13 days after the release of 2012 Official MCASresults.In addition to speed new reports and standards are available. No longer limited to the State, District, School and Student levels the EDWnow has classroom-level disaggregation. Analysis via the new Common Core Standards is also available.
Session attendees will receive an overview of the Level Data process and then watch Active Directory™ accounts provisioned, home folders managed, classroom storage with homework turn in folders created, remote access to provisioned storage for iPads and alike, student and staff web page templates provisioned, group management of student accounts and graduation cleanup all done automatically without user intervention and initiated by activities in the student management system
Participants will be introduced to and able to apply specific tools, strategies, and techniques to enhance professional learning and student achievement thought he use of 21st century tools. Enhancing professional learning and data collection during classroom visits will create a school with high expectations focused on targeted feedback and collaboration.

This hands-on workshop will engage educators with many visual arts apps and great iPad resources to use in their classrooms, schools, or districts.
ESE is launching Edwin, Massachusetts’ new, comprehensive teaching and learning platform. Edwin will provide educators with quality resources to continue to promote high-levels of student achievement and help reduce persistent achievement gaps among the state’s most and least-advantaged student groups. This system will support educators and foster teaching and learning at every level—classroom, school, district, and state—by providing on-demand access to instructional resources, curriculum planning tools, model curriculum units, and a variety of assessments including curriculum embedded performance assessments.
