CURRENT TRENDS IN HARDWARE AND INFRASTRUCTURE

Tablets

According to a report releases on 1/7/2013 by NPD DisplaySearch, tablet sales will outpace notebooks in 2013 In July the same firm forecasted this

occurring in 2016 Tablets coupled with a projection device

may replace smart boards While Apple and Android clearly

dominate the market, they fail to bring the manageability we’ve grown accustom to with Windows machines

Smartphones

The most ubiquitous portable device Superior portability at the expense of

some usability due to screen size Most apps available for tablets are also

available for smartphones but sometimes with minor functionality losses

Laptops and Desktops

Laptops are now barley considered portable compared to tablets and smartphones

Laptops and desktops are still king when it comes to “producing” rather than consuming

Some 1:1 curriculum leverages tablets and smartphones for research and data acquisition but laptops and desktops for collating everything into a deliverable product

Wireless access

WiFi access is becoming omnipresent in everyday life

Virtually every portable device connects via Wifi

Many connect to 3G/4G wireless data networks as well

Many people are “connected” with access to Internet based resources at all times

Capacity is overtaking coverage as the biggest challenge

Security Software

As users shift to tablets and smartphones for computing, malware will follow

Many traditional defenses like keeping software updated across the organization, ensuring secure configurations, etc are significantly more challenging with mobile devices.

The move to the “Cloud” has shifted much of the responsibilities to external entities

The Cloud

There are many different definitions but the cloud is not much more than hosted services While in most situations these services are provided by

a 3rd party, private clouds are popular as well In hosted environments, your data is no longer

isolated within your organization The shift to the cloud brings with it applications

that leverage the increased accessibility to the data to enhance collaborative functionality

It simplifies many IT responsibilities but places increased reliance on WAN and Internet performance and availability

EVERYTHING IS CHANGING

What’s your plan?

1 to 1 Computing: In the context of this meeting, “One-to-One" (1:1) is the practice of leveraging technology for curricular use in which each student uses a device that is dedicated to his/her use. The device may or may not be district provided. The key element is that there is one device for every student.

Bring Your Own Device (BYOD): In the context of this meeting, “Bring Your Own Device” is the practice of leveraging teacher or student owned and managed devices for curricular use. Often this is done to achieve a one-to-one environment.
