EDMS 570 - Bring Your Own Device 3 Credit Hours This course will introduce teachers to a Bring Your Own Device initiative. BYOD initiatives are
beginning to take place all over the country as a way to engage students with devices they already
own and to save districts the cost of purchasing every child a computer. Devices that students
bring to school can include laptops, tablets, eReaders, cell phones, smartphones or portable media
players (like the iPod Touch). Teachers will gain experience with multiple devices, while creating
an integrated unit utilizing the advantages of BYOD in their classrooms. Units will be developed
over the course, while being informed by theoretical and empirical readings and group discussions.
Teachers will also take a closer look at the challenges of teaching in a classroom with many
different devices by implementing their unit and reflecting on and sharing classroom management
strategies necessary to make a BYOD initiative effective.
