1. OVERVIEW

1.1 Digital Convergence Goals

One of the overriding goals of the Digital Convergence initiative is to maximize the learning potential of all students in an effort to prepare them for a successful future as 21st century citizens. In an effort to do so, Miami-Dade County Public Schools (M-DCPS) wants to provide students with the experience of using various mobile devices. The use of 1:1 mobile devices will aid in developing independent learners, provide for collaboration and communication between students and teachers, and extend student learning beyond the classroom. The policies, procedures, and guidelines outlined in this document apply to all district-issued mobile devices (i.e., tablets, laptops) in the district. Information is also provided regarding the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) personal devices. Additional requirements are at the discretion of each school and/or classroom teacher.

Mobile Device Project Goals:

• Create rigorous, relevant, student-centered learning environments that better prepare all students for the global community

• Engage learners with transformative instruction enhanced by collaboration, problem solving, critical thinking, communication, and technological literacy

• Ensure equity and access to digital tools and resources • Strengthen 21st century skills necessary for future success

Curriculum Integration Goals:

• Authentic Connections: the learning experience provides real world relevance and opportunity for students to apply their learning to create a product that has purpose and relevance

• High Levels of Engagement: students collaborate on tasks, process and/or solutions • Higher-Order Thinking: the questions and tasks are designed to promote analyzing,

evaluating, and creating • Technology Use: devices are used in a seamless fashion to promote student

learning, and students use self-selected digital resources to accomplish learning outcomes beyond traditional strategies

1.2 Mobile Devices and Promethean Interactive Boards Rollout

Schools at all levels have received mobile devices to increase student access to computing technology. Between 2013 and 2016, over 104,000 mobile devices were deployed to schools across the district. In addition to deploying mobile devices, the district has implemented an interactive board retrofit initiative, adding Promethean systems to over 11,620 classrooms district-wide. See Figure 1 on the following page.

1.3 Personal Devices (BYOD)

If parents decide to allow their child to use his/her own personal device in lieu of a

district-provided device, the parents must sign form FM-7523 and return it to the school.

Parents can access more information regarding the BYOD program, including

specifications for personally-owned devices, at the BYOD website located at

http://wifi.dadeschools.net. School staff can access Form 7523 by logging into

http://www.dadeschools.net/ and using the Records and Forms Management forms

search located in the Apps/Services/Sites section of the portal or by using the following

link: http://forms.dadeschools.net/search.asp. Form FM-7523 is also included in this

document in the Appendices section.

1.4 Using this Guide

This implementation guide provides general information and instructions on

maintaining, storing, distributing, using, and caring for the mobile devices. The term

“mobile device” will be used to refer to tablets or laptops. As part of the Digital

Convergence initiative, middle schools and K-8 centers will be implementing an in-

school model in which devices will be used only in the classrooms, while high schools

will be implementing a take-home model in which students will be assigned a mobile

device to use at home and in school. Guidelines, instructions, and procedures have

been provided to help schools in implementing either deployment models. Schools

should follow the instructions intended for their specific deployment model.

1.5 Designated Site Person (DSP) Responsibility

Each secondary school (middle schools and senior high schools) should identify a Designated Site Person (DSP) who will be the primary contact for the mobile device deployment at his/her school. Instructions for identifying and verifying the DSP at the school site will be provided through the Weekly Briefing system to all school administrators prior to the beginning of the school year. Typical responsibilities of the DSP include the following:

Coordinating deliveries with United Data Technologies (UDT)

Communicating with site based technician and/or UDT regarding repair issues

Distributing devices to teachers and/or students

Allocating appropriate number of classroom sets of devices (in-school model)

Assisting teachers with distributing devices to students (take-home model)

Managing the circulation and inventory of devices through the Asset Tracking Management System (ATMS), including the pool of spare devices

Updating the device status in ATMS when device is submitted for repair and after device is repaired by school technician or UDT

Training school site personnel on the functionality and use of the ATMS

Overseeing the collection of mobile devices at the end of the school year

Locating secure storage area(s) for devices over summer break and other extended school recess periods

Ensuring that procedures are followed in preparing devices for summer refresh

Disseminating district information to teachers and/or administrators regarding mobile device project

2. ISSUING DISTRICT MOBILE DEVICES

Schools will implement one of two models when distributing and using the mobile devices. In

the Take-home Model students are provided a mobile device for use in school and at home

and in the In-school Model, students use devices in school as part of classroom instruction.

Take-home Model Schools implementing a take-home model (high schools) will check out devices to students

for them to use in class and at home. Students may use the devices during the school year,

but must turn them in when requested for quarterly checks and at the end of the school year.

High schools may implement a modified “in-school” model for the first two weeks of school,

while they plan the distribution of mobile devices to students. However, district-issued mobile

devices must be distributed and assigned to students by the end of the third (3rd) week of

school.

The different models currently in use in the District as part of Digital Convergence are the HP

Notebook 210 G1, HP ProBook 11EE , HP Elitepad 900, HP Pro Tablet 10 EE G1, Lenovo X131E,

and Lenovo X230. All tablets, regardless of model, will have the same default district image, so

they are interchangeable in terms of functionality and pre-loaded applications. However, as a

management strategy, it is recommended that mobile devices be continued to be used in the

grades/classes in which they were first introduced (i.e., EP900 in grades 7 and 9) as the

teachers in those classes are familiar with that device. Familiarity with the device will facilitate

the integration of technology in classroom instruction as well as basic troubleshooting and

management of the device by the teacher. Additionally, as much as possible, different devices

should not be mixed within a class, even if those devices are intended to be checked out to

students to take home. Maintaining uniformity of devices within a class will facilitate device

management, classroom management, and device troubleshooting by teachers.

In-school Model Schools using this model (middle schools and K-8 centers) will deploy a cart with devices to

the appropriate classrooms (i.e., 7th grade Civics, 8th grade US History) for teachers to use in

daily instruction, but the mobile devices remain in the classrooms. Students use devices in

school but do not take them home.

Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 8

Annual Technology Fee: Take-home Model

In order to receive a mobile device, students in 9th, 10th, or 11th grade are required to pay a

technology fee. See chart below. The technology fee covers repair of device malfunction; it

does NOT cover repair from neglect or abuse, loss or damage of the accessories (i.e., charger,

case, keyboard, etc.), or replacement of the device. The technology fee should be collected

prior to students receiving a mobile device; however, if a family presents a hardship case

regarding the payment of the fee, the school administrator may opt to provide the student with

a mobile device and delay the payment of the fee until the family is able to pay or waive the

fee.

Annual Technology Fee for Ninth, Tenth and Eleventh Grade Students Only The annual technology fee will be used for non-warranty repair and replacement of mobile devices and accessories. The technology fee is included in the Special Fees and Charges School Request form, FM-2396.

Students on Regular Price Lunch $20.00

Students on Reduced Price Lunch $10.00

Students on Free Lunch $5.00

Asset Tracking Management System (ATMS)

Schools will use the Asset Tracking Management System (ATMS) to “check out” mobile

devices to students and teachers by assigning the mobile device serial number to the student

ID or teacher employee number. Schools will also have the ability to update and view the

current status of a device (e.g., checked out, in repair, lost, etc.) Each school should identify

those staff members who are to have access to the ATMS as “ATMS Users.” Instructions for

identifying and verifying the ATMS U\users and assigning the appropriate access levels for

the users will be provided through the Weekly Briefing system to all school administrators

prior to the beginning of the school year. Additionally, an Asset Tracking Management System

User Guide is available on the Digital Convergence website to assist school staff with using

the ATMS.

2.1 Mobile Device Distribution and Collection Timetable

The following timeline has been established to ensure a smooth and organized

distribution of mobile devices. The chart below details the tasks associated with the

management of mobile devices and the time frames within which they are to be

completed. Whenever appropriate, tasks intended for specific deployment models will be

identified. A Mobile Device Project Planning Checklist (Appendix A) is provided in this

document to assist school site administrators in planning the distribution of mobile devices

to students.

2.3 Procedures for Checking Out Devices or Assigning Loaner Groups

2.3.1 Checking Out Devices to Students: Take-home Model

The following steps are to be included in any of the scenarios the school chooses to

implement to check out devices to students.

1. Collect signed student/parent contract

2. Collect the technology fee

3. Offer optional insurance for devices

4. Use the ATMS to check out devices to students. Depending on the distribution

model implemented by the school, the DSP or the World History teacher may be

responsible for checking out the devices to students.

5. Each student will receive a mobile device and the appropriate accessories,

depending on which model he/she is given.

2.3.2 Assigning Loaner Groups: In-school Model

1. Use the Asset Tracking Management System (ATMS) to assign devices to teacher

Loaner Groups.

2. Teachers should keep the device accessories in the classroom. Guidelines for

storing and managing the accessories are provided in the Mobile Device Project

Reference Guide, Section 6: “Daily Routines When Using Devices: In-Class

Model.”

2.4 Conducting Quarterly and Mid-Year Checks of Mobile Devices

2.4.1 Quarterly Checks: Take-home Model

Mobile devices that were provided to students should be checked during the school year

to ensure that they are still in students’ possession and to confirm that they are still in

working order. Conducting quarterly checks for these devices will reduce the quantity of

devices that may need to be sent for repair at the end of the school year. Schools

implementing the Take-home Model should conduct quarterly mobile device checks (one

every grading period) of devices checked out to students and devices in storage. The

steps are outlined below:

1. Have students bring in mobile devices

2. Use the Asset Inventory Check function in ATMS to record date device was seen

3. Check devices in storage and repeat Step #2

4. Send any damaged devices for repair and change the status in the ATMS by creating

a Service Ticket

Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 12

2.4.2 Mid-Year Check: In-school Model

Schools implementing the In-school Model should conduct a mid-year mobile device

check for all devices in classrooms and in storage rooms to ensure that they are still in

the school and are in working order. Conducting a mid-year check for these devices will

reduce the quantity of devices that may need to be sent for repair at the end of the school

year. The steps are outlined below:

1. Check devices in classrooms

2. Use the Asset Inventory Check function in ATMS to record date device was seen

3. Check devices in storage room(s) and repeat Step #2

4. Send any damaged devices for repair and change the status in the ATMS by creating

a Service Ticket

2.5 Instructions for Using the Asset Tracking Management System

Please see the Asset Tracking Management System (ATMS) Instruction Guide for

information on using the ATMS to check out mobile devices to students, conducting the

mobile device inventory checks, and other functions. The guide can be found at

http://digital.dadeschools.net/.

3. PROCEDURES FOR MANAGING/HANDLING DEVICES

3.1 Storing the Device: Both Models

Whenever devices are not in use by students or teachers (e.g., spare pool devices or

devices stored during the winter, spring, or summer recesses) they should be kept in a

secure, locked location. When storing mobile devices, heavy objects should not be

placed on top of the devices as this could result in damage. Under no circumstances

should mobile devices be left unattended in unsupervised or common areas such as the

cafeteria, hallways, media center, gym, PE field, computer labs, restrooms, or any

unlocked classroom. Any device left unattended may be stolen. If a mobile device is

found in an unsupervised area, it must be taken to the DSP or a school administrator.

Additional information regarding the care of mobile devices is provided in Section 7: Care

of Mobile Device. See Section 1.2: Mobile Device Rollout. Schools should maintain no

more than 10% of devices in storage as a spare pool inventory for device replacement.

Mobile devices in the spare pool or devices that are not currently checked out to students

are not to be used for administrative purposes

account established by the Office of the Controller. See Weekly Briefing #17434,

posted on April 27, 2015.

Page 22: Mobile Device Project · learning, and students use self-selected digital resources to accomplish learning outcomes beyond traditional strategies 1.2 Mobile Devices and Promethean

MOBILE DEVICE PROJECT: IMPLEMENTATION GUIDE 2016-2017

Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 21

3. The Treasurer clears the student’s financial obligation for the device.

4. The Treasurer notifies the DSP that the student fulfilled his/her device financial

obligation for the device.

3.5 Restoring the Devices

All mobile devices may be restored to the default District image to repair software issues

or to remove inappropriate content. Restoring removes all data on the mobile device;

therefore, students are urged to save their work in the district-provided cloud storage,

OneDrive. When restoring devices, school technicians must restore to the default District

image; they may not create a new image.

3.6 Collecting Student Devices

Regardless of which scenario is selected, schools should use the ATMS to “check in”

devices that were checked out to students. As part of the end-of-year procedures,

schools need to store devices and prepare them for the summer refresh and update

process. Information regarding the end-of-year collection and refresh procedures can

be found on the District’s Digital Convergence website located at

http://digital.dadeschools.net/school_resources.asp.

3.6.1 End-of-Year Device Collection: Take-home Model

At the end of the school year, schools implementing the Take-home Model will collect

devices and accessories from students. Failure of a student to turn in the device will

result in the student being issued a financial obligation for the full replacement cost. To

collect the devices at the end of the school year, schools may follow the same distribution

models/scenarios used at the beginning of the school year and introduced in Section 2.2

Scenarios for “Checking Out” Devices.

3.6.2 Students Transferring Schools within the District: Take-home Model

Students transferring from one school to another must turn in the device at the school

they are leaving. Students will be issued a new device upon enrolling in their new school.

Students do not need to pay the technology fee at their new school, if they paid the

technology fee at their previous school, for the current school year. Students need to

show the receipt for the technology fee at their school and/or would have to wait until the

current school confirms that the technology fee was paid at the student’s former school.

Students who do not turn in the device before transferring will not be issued a device at

the new school and will be issued a financial obligation for the cost of the device they

have not returned.

3.6.3 Students Withdrawing from M-DCPS: Take-home Model

Students withdrawing from Miami-Dade County Public Schools or transferring to a

Charter school, who have a district-issued mobile device checked out, must turn in their

student mobile devices before their last day of attendance. Failure to do so will result in

the student being charged the full replacement cost. M-DCPS may also file a report of

stolen property with the local law enforcement agency, if the mobile device is not

returned.

3.6.4 End-of-Year Device Collection: In-school Model

At the end of the school year, schools implementing the In-school Model will collect

devices from classrooms and store them in a secure location in preparation for the

summer refresh and upgrade process. Specific information and instructions regarding

the end-of-year collection and refresh procedures can be found on the Digital

Convergence website at http://digital.dadeschools.net/school_resources.asp.

4. STUDENT/PARENT/GUARDIAN RESPONSIBILITIES

Every effort is being made to equip families with the information they need to ensure the safe

use of mobile devices in the home. Schools should consider conducting orientation meetings

for families to discuss the deployment of mobile devices and the use/care of mobile devices

at home. These meetings can be conducted in conjunction with the distribution of devices or

they can be conducted at a separate time. Topics should include, but are not limited to:

Student and Parent/Guardian Responsibilities

Care of the Mobile Device

Acceptable Use Policy

BYOD District Policies

Internet Safety/Digital Citizenship

The best way to keep students safe and on-task is to have parents/guardians present and

involved. Once devices go home with students, parents/guardians are responsible for

monitoring student use at home and away from school. Below are suggestions for students

and parents for the use of devices use at home and at school.

4.1 Parent/Guardian Responsibilities for Monitoring Device Use at Home

Develop a set of rules/expectations for the mobile device use at home

Allow mobile device use only in common rooms of the home, such as living room or kitchen

Demonstrate interest in what your child is doing on the mobile device

Additional information regarding the use and care of the mobile devices at home is found in Section 6 Student Use of Mobile Devices and Section 7 Care of Mobile Devices. Teachers should review the Student Pledge for Mobile Device Use & Code of Netiquette (Appendix C) with students to discuss the proper use and maintenance of mobile devices.

4.3 Netiquette

Students should follow netiquette rules when communicating on the Internet. These rules

can be found in the Student Pledge for Mobile Device Use & Code of Netiquette

(Appendix C). Additional rules of Network Netiquette can be found in the District’s

Acceptable Use Policy (AUP), located at http://www.neola.com/miamidade-

fl/search/policies/po7540.03.htm. The District’s AUP may also be found in Appendix H.

4.4 Parent/Student Responsibilities Regarding Broken, Lost, or Stolen

Devices

Students and parents are obligated to report immediately to the DSP at the school any

incidence of a broken, lost, or stolen device issued by the District. A Student Financial

Obligation will be issued to the student, either in the amount of the cost to repair the

District-issued device, or in the amount of the cost to replace the District-issued device,

if it is lost or stolen.

4.4.1 Parent/Student Responsibilities Regarding Stolen Devices

If the District-issued device has been stolen, the student and parents must report the

suspected theft to either the school police or the municipal police department, depending

on whether the device was stolen on school grounds or off campus. If the device was

stolen off campus, then a copy of the police report, including case number, must be

turned in to the school administration. Failure to provide a police report from the

Page 25: Mobile Device Project · learning, and students use self-selected digital resources to accomplish learning outcomes beyond traditional strategies 1.2 Mobile Devices and Promethean

MOBILE DEVICE PROJECT: IMPLEMENTATION GUIDE 2016-2017

Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 24

appropriate police department will result in the student being issued a textbook in place

of the missing district-issued device. However, if a police report is provided by the student

or parents to the school, and the student does not have an outstanding financial

obligation for a previous device, then the school will provide the student with a

replacement district-issued device. The student is still responsible for the cost of the

stolen device, and the school will issue a Student Financial Obligation to the student for

the full replacement cost of the device.

4.4.2 Parent/Student Responsibilities Regarding Lost Devices

If the District-issued device has been lost, the student and parents must report the loss

to the school. The school will update the student record in the District’s Asset Tracking

Management System (ATMS) to indicate the device was lost. The school will issue a

Student Financial Obligation to the student for the full replacement cost of the device.

4.4.3 Parent/Student Responsibilities Regarding Broken Devices

Students are expected to report any damage to their district-issued mobile device as

soon as possible. If a District-issued device is broken, the school will re-issue another

device to the student provided that the student has no outstanding student obligations

for a previous device. If the student has an outstanding financial obligation for another

device, the student will be issued a textbook. If the School Technician is able to repair

the student’s broken device by doing a “restore” of the device software or if the repair is

covered under the manufacturer’s warranty, then the student will not be issued a financial

obligation. If the damage is not covered under the manufacturer’s warranty (i.e., cracked

screen) the student will be issued a financial obligation in the amount of the cost to repair

the device, or the cost to replace the device if it was a total loss.

5. APPS & SOFTWARE

Student mobile devices will come pre-loaded with pre-selected educational apps. These apps must remain on the mobile device and should not be deleted by the student.

Updates to District apps and mobile device software may be done by the District periodically throughout the year.

Additional educational software/apps may be installed by the District throughout the school year.

Students are not allowed to download content or install new apps/software on devices or attempt to update currently installed software.

6. STUDENT USE OF MOBILE DEVICES

6.1 Using Mobile Devices in School

Mobile devices are intended to be used at school each day. Students who have devices

checked out to them are responsible for bringing their devices fully-charged to classes

on a daily basis, unless specifically instructed not to do so by their teacher. If a student

does not bring a mobile device to school, it is up to the discretion of the teacher if the

student will be given a loaner device for the duration of the class period, or provided with

an alternate assignment. If a student is provided with a device to use during class time,

the student must turn in the device at the end of class or when directed by the teacher.

The student is not to be given a second device to take home. Students who have multiple

occurrences of forgetting their mobile devices or not bringing their mobile devices fully

charged may face disciplinary action.

6.2 Using the Mobile Device Outside of School

Students have been provided with mobile devices with the intent that they take them

home and use them outside of school. Wi-Fi is required for student mobile devices to

access the Internet and certain applications. When connecting to the Internet outside of

school, students should understand they are still using school equipment and District

rules and policies still apply. Students are expected to follow all M-DCPS policies

wherever they use their district-issued mobile devices. For more information, refer to the

Mobile Device Agreement (Appendix E) and the District Acceptable Use Policy (Appendix

H). Additionally, students are responsible for taking care of the devices they are issued.

Information regarding caring for the devices can be found in Section 7: Care of Mobile

Devices.

6.3 Charging Mobile Devices to Use in School

Students are expected to charge their mobile devices each night to ensure that they are

fully charged for use at school, and students should be instructed to keep the chargers

that came with the device at home to avoid losing them. Classrooms may have a limited

number of charging stations or outlets available to students on a first come, first served

basis; therefore, students should not expect to be able to charge their devices in school.

6.4 Logging into Student Mobile Devices

Students will log into their student mobile devices with their district-issued passwords,

and they should never share their passwords with others. For step-by-step instructions

on logging into the mobile devices refer students to the Mobile Device Reference Guide

responsabilidad de ninguna clase por la pérdida, destrucción, el mal uso, la confidencialidad de

los datos o disponibilidad de cualquier información o datos que estén guardados en el dispositivo

móvil (computadora). Si el dispositivo móvil no fuese devuelto, las M-DCPS, pueden ejercer las

opciones que se delinean en los Estatutos del Estado de la Florida relacionados con materiales

para la educación que no son devueltos, entre las que se encuentran, pero no se limitan a,

suspender la participación del Estudiante de actividades extracurriculares o de que el Estudiante

salde la deuda por medio de actividades de servicio comunitario. Las M-DCPS pueden agotar

cualquiera y todos los recursos legales disponibles en el cumplimiento de este Acuerdo.

3. Suministros informáticos. El Estudiante y el Padre son responsables de obtener cualquier

suministro informático que se requiera en relación con el dispositivo móvil (computadora).

Si alguna parte del dispositivo móvil se dañara, pero que fuese reparable, el Estudiante y el Padre serán responsables de los gastos de la reparación en el caso de que tal reparación no estuviera cubierta por la garantía del fabricante. Si no se recibe el pago, las M-DCPS, podrán ejercitar las opciones que se delinean en los Estatutos del Estado de la Florida por falta de cobro de materiales de instrucción, incluyendo, pero sin que se limite a que el estudiante sea suspendido de participar en actividades extracurriculares o que el Estudiante salde la deuda total mediante actividades de servicio comunitario.

de acuerdo de notificar inmediatamente a las M-DCPS después de que haya ocurrido la pérdida, el daño, o si por cualquier motivo, alguna parte del dispositivo móvil no estuviese funcionando adecuadamente, las M-DCPS, a su discreción, pueden terminar el derecho del Estudiante de usar el dispositivo móvil y de cualquier derecho que pueda tener el Estudiante de seguir participando en el programa para recibir dispositivos móviles. Si el dispositivo fuese robado fuera del plantel/terrenos de la escuela, el Padre se deberá poner en contacto con el departamento de la policía del condado municipal pertinente y deberá hacer un informe a la policía. El Padre también debe notificar al personal del plantel escolar designado y proporcionar el número del informe policiaco.

deben permitir que personas designadas por las M-DCPS examinen el dispositivo móvil (computadora), a la hora designada por las M-DCPS.

Las M-DCPS harán todos los esfuerzos razonables para que el Estudiante y el Padre reciban los servicios proporcionados por el fabricante en conexión con dicho dispositivo. Sin embargo, las M-DCPS no están obligadas a comenzar o recurrir a un litigio para hacer cumplir dicha garantía.

Tout materyèl yo, ki gen ladan disk, ak lòt aparèy pou estoke enfòmasyon, dwe satisfè tout espesifikasyon ki aplikab ak fabrik aparèy mobil la, e yo dwe konpatib ak sistèm fonksyònman aparèy mobil la, e yo pa dwe itilize yo nan yon fason ki ap lakoz domaj nan aparèy mobil la.

4. Modifikasyon ak Atachman. Elèv ak Paran pa dwe fè okenn modifikasyon oubyen ajoute atachman, ekipman, oubyen pwogram nan aparèy mobil la san yon pèmisyon espesifik ekri ki soti nan M-DCPS, e pèmisyon sa a dwe opsyon M-DCPS sèlman. Yo bay elèv la aparèy mobil sa a sèlman pou itilizasyon edikasyonèl e kèlkeswa itilizasyon yo konsidere ki pa konsistan ak bi sa a jan administratè lekòl yo oubyen pèsonèl Distri yo detèmine sa, oubyen ki an vyolasyon ak règ Komisyon Konsèy Lekòl yo, lwa Eta ak Federal, oubyen Chapit 815 Lwa Florid kondane, y ap konsidere li kòm yon vyolasyon materyèl Akò sa a, ki mande pou elèv la remèt aparèy mobil la imedyatman bay M-DCPS.

5. Livre e Remèt. Elèv ak Paran responsab pou transpòtasyon aparèy òdinatè mobil la pou toude, livre li bay Elèv la e remèt li bay M-DCPS. Yo dwe livre e remèt aparèy mobil la nan lekòl elèv la.

6. Risk pou Pèdi. Elèv ak Paran dakò depi lè yo aksepte resevwa aparèy mobil la e jiskaske yo remèt li bay M-DCPS nan kondisyon orijinal li, eksepte izaj natirèl, Elèv ak Paran ap responsab pou kèlkeswa sa ki pèdi oubyen ki andomaje ladan. Si aparèy òdinatè mobil la pèdi, yo vòlè li, detui li, andomaje li, kote pri reparasyon yo depase valè aparèy mobil la oubyen an ka gouvènman an deside konfiske, sezi oubyen pran li, oubyen si yo pa remèt aparèy mobil la bay M-DCPS nan lè sa dwe fèt e nan espas tan ak fason Akò sa a mande, lè sa a Elèv la ak Paran an ap gen responsablite anvè M-DCPS imedyatman lè yo mande peye yon montan M-DCPS kalkile ki egal ak frè total pou ranplase aparèy mobil la nan lè li te pèdi a. Se Elèv la ak Paran an ki responsab pou risk Ekipman oubyen pwogram yo depanse pou ajoute sou aparèy mobil la, e yo pap konsidere yo nan evalye pri aparèy mobil la lè y ap vann li. Si yon pati nan aparèy mobil la andomaje, men li reparab, Elèv la ak Paran an ap responsab pou depans reparasyon objè sa a si li pa kouvri anba garanti fabrik la. Si M-DCPS pa resevwa peman an, li ka egzèse opsyon yo jan yo dekri li nan Lwa Eta Florid pou lè yo pa retounen materyèl enstriksyonèl ki gen ladan, men ki pa limite a, sispann patisipasyon Elèv la nan aktivite andeyò salklas oubyen Èlèv la ap peye dèt la atravè aktivite sèvis kominotè. Elèv ak Paran konprann e yo dakò, pi devan, yo pran angajman e yo dakò avèk orè Frè Rekouvreman Teknoloji ki anndan dokiman sa a e ki fè pati Akò sa a.

7. Avi pou Pèd, Domaj, oubyen Move Fonksyònman. Elèv ak Paran dakò pou avize M-DCPS imedyatman lè gen kèlkeswa pèd, domaj, oubyen move fonksyònman nenpòt pati nan aparèy mobil la pou kèlkeswa rezon an, e M-DCPS, daprè opsyon li genyen, kapab lè sa a sispann dwa Elèv la pou l itilize aparèy mobil la e nenpòt dwa Elèv la ka genyen pou li kontinye patisipe nan pwogram aparèy mobil la. Si yo vòlè aparèy la andeyò teren/anplasman lekòl la, paran an dwe

MOBILE DEVICE PROJECT: IMPLEMENTATION GUIDE 2016-2017

Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 55

kontakte depatman polis Konte minisipal ki apwopriye a e ranpli yon rapò polis. Paran dwe avize tou pèsonèl lekòl ki konsène a e bay nimewo rapò polis la.

8. M-DCPS ap Fè Enspeksyon. Lè yo bay yon avi rezonab, Elèv ak Paran ap pèmèt moun M-DCPS deziyen pou egzamine aparèy òdinatè mobil la, nan yon lè M-DCPS chwazi.

C. Dwa ak Responsablite M-DCPS

1. Posesyon aparèy Mobil la. Aparèy òdinatè mobil la se pwopriyete M-DCPS e l ap rete pwopriyete li.

2. Aplikasyon Garanti Fabrik la. Lè nou resevwa demand ekri nan men Elèv ak Paran pandan peryòd Akò sa a, M-DCPS ap detèmine si l ap fè tout efò rezonab pou l aplike kèlkeswa garanti fabrik la, ouvètman oubyen vwale, li bay sou aparèy òdinatè mobil la oubyen ki aplikab pou li, e M-DCPS kapab aplike nan pwòp non li. M-DCPS ap fè efò rezonab pou jwenn tout sèvis fabrik la ap founi Elèv ak Paran an koneksyon avèk sa; a kondisyon, sepandan, M-DCPS pap pran obligasyon pou kòmanse oubyen antre nan okenn litij pou aplike yon tèl garanti. Si Elèv ak Paran ka aplike garanti sa a nan pwòp non li, aprè li resevwa yon demand ekri nan men M-DCPS pandan peryòd Akò sa a, Elèv ak Paran dwe pran tout aksyon rezonab M-DCPS mande pou aplike garanti sa a, e Elèv la dwe jwenn pou M-DCPS tout sèvis fabrik la founi an koneksyon avèk sa. M-DCPS PAP GEN OKENN RESPONSABLITE DITOU POU PÈD, DESTRIKSYON OUBYEN MOVE ITILIZASYON KÈLKESWA ENFÒMASYON, PWOGRAM OUBYEN DONE KI EGZISTE NAN EKIPMAN AN. PWOTEKSYON AK REZÈV DONE KI NAN EKIPMAN AN OUBYEN POU EKIPMAN AN SE RESPONSABLITE PARAN AK ELÈV LA SÈLMAN.

D. Avètisman sou Garanti ak Solisyon e Piblikasyon

1. Avètisman sou Garanti. Eksepte si gen endikasyon nan dokiman sa a ki kontrè ak sa nou mansyone la a, M-DCPS pa bay okenn garanti, swa ouvètman oubyen vwale, e li pa dwe, paske li achte aparèy òdinatè mobil la ki kouvri anba Akò sa a, fè kèlkeswa reprezantasyon oubyen bay garanti sou valè komèsyal, eta, fòm, oubyen kondisyon, oubyen kalite materyèl oubyen travay nan aparèy òdinatè mobil la. M-DCPS rejte ouvètman tout garanti ki pa mansyone la a. M-DCPS pa bay garanti, fonksyon ki nan aparèy òdinatè mobil la ap satisfè demand, oubyen bezwen Elèv la, aparèy òdinatè mobil la ap fonksyone san entèripsyon oubyen san erè.

2. Solisyon sou Garanti. Nan okenn sikonstans M-DCPS pap pote responsablite pou Elèv la, Paran an oubyen kèlkeswa lòt moun pou domaj yo sibi, ki gen ladan domaj endirèk, depans, defisi, pèt lajan yo te ekonomize, oubyen lòt domaj ki soti nan itilizasyon oubyen enkapasite pou sèvi avèk aparèy òdinatè mobil la.

3. Dispans pou Responsablite. Pou e an konsiderasyon itilizasyon otorize ki ap fèt avèk pwopriyete M-DCPS (aparèy mobil) la, paran, elèv, eritye ak reprezantan li, rekonèt nan dokiman sa a yo resevwa materyèl la, e yo renonse, lage, kite, e pou toutan, dispanse Komisyon Konsèy Lekòl Leta Miami-Dade County, Florid (M-DCPS), ajan, reprezantan, asirè, siksesè, anplwaye, pwopriyetè, ofisye, direktè, administratè, asosye, ak konpayi li, de nenpòt e tout responsablite, koz aksyon, pwosè, dèt, balans, domaj, ki gen ladan domaj e enterè ak peman penalite, blesi, ki gen ladan lanmò nenpòt moun, oubyen domaj sou pwopriyete, oubyen kèlkeswa nati domaj la, sòm lajan, kont an bank, estimasyon, frè pou avoka, bon, fakti, angajman, kontra, dezakò, akò, pwomès, reklamasyon, ak demand pou kèlkeswa espès oubyen nati a, devan lalwa oubyen lajistis, elèv la oubyen paran an te janm genyen, genyen kounye a, oubyen nenpòt reprezantan

Page 57: Mobile Device Project · learning, and students use self-selected digital resources to accomplish learning outcomes beyond traditional strategies 1.2 Mobile Devices and Promethean

MOBILE DEVICE PROJECT: IMPLEMENTATION GUIDE 2016-2017

Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 56

pèsonèl, siksesè, manm fanmi, eritye, oubyen benefisyè elèv oubyen paran genyen kounye a oubyen kapab vin genyen aprè kont Komisyon Konsèy Lekòl la oubyen M-DCPS, ki soti, dirèkteman oubyen endirèkteman, nan Akò sa a oubyen nan itilizasyon oubyen posesyon aparèy mobil M-DCPS ofri a. Paran an ak elèv la dakò, anplis, yo ap pwoteje, defann, e kenbe Komisyon Konsèy Lekòl (M-DCPS) inosan nan kèlkeswa oubyen tout reklamasyon ki se konsekans move itilizasyon elèv la oubyen paran an fè avèk aparèy mobil nou remèt elèv la selon Akò sa a.

E. Varyete

1. Okenn Tyès Pèsòn kòm Benefisyè. Pati yo rekonèt klèman yo pa gen entansyon pou yo kreye oubyen pase okenn dwa oubyen obligasyon bay oubyen sou yon twazyèm moun oubyen antite anba Akò sa a. Nou pap entèprete anyen nan akò a kòm konsantman yon ajans oubyen sibdivizyon politik Eta Florid pou yon tyès pèsòn ta fè pousuit jidisyè nan kèlkeswa sitiyasyon ki ta soti nan kèlkeswa kontra a.

2. Aprè Ekspirasyon Akò a. Pwovizyon sa yo ki selon nati yo, fèt pou kontinye egziste aprè ekspirasyon, anilasyon oubyen sispansyon Akò sa a, ki gen ladan kòm egzanp sèlman, pwovizyon sou dedomajman, ap egziste aprè ekspirasyon, anilasyon oubyen sispansyon Akò sa a.

3. Sispansyon Pou Komodite. Komisyon Konsèy Lekòl la bay tèt li dwa pou li sispann Akò sa a nenpòt lè pou kèlkeswa rezon an aprè li fin bay paran an oubyen elèv la yon avi trant (30) jou. Nan ka kote Akò sa a ta sispann pou komodite, jan yo deklare sa nan dokiman an, Komisyon Konsèy Lekòl la ap libere li de tout obligasyon anba Akò sa a.

4. Lwa ak Jiridiksyon Prensipal. Se lwa Eta Florid ki dwe gouvène e entèprete Akò sa a. Nan ka kote genyen yon litij, jiridiksyon pou nenpòt reklamasyon ap chita eksklizivman nan yon tribinal jiridiksyon konpetan nan Miami-Dade County. Tout pati yo dwe responsab pou frè ak depans pwòp avoka yo.

Frè Rekouvreman pou Teknoloji:

Nou atann pou elèv remèt òdinatè a nan menm kondisyon yo te resevwa li a. Pandan nou ap pran an konsiderasyon izaj natirèl yo, elèv ki maltrete ekipman an ap peye penalite pou sa. Elèv ap fè fas a obligasyon finansye yo si nenpòt nan sa ki suiv yo rive. Anba a n ap wè frè pou reparasyon pou divès aparèy mobil ak akseswa yo itilize nan Lekòl Leta Miami-Dade County kòm yon pati nan Inisyativ Konvèjans Dijital la.

Students and parents must submit a contract for use of the device before being allowed to use it. Students will be notified of any additional responsibilities for use of these devices. The contract must be maintained in the student’s cumulative file.

E. Students shall not (1) access or use another person’s account without written permission; (2) share their password with anyone else or engage in activities that would reveal anyone’s password; (3) allow others to access a computer that the user is logged on to; or (4) ever sign in, or attempt to sign in, as another person.

Social Media Social media is defined as internet-based applications (such as Facebook, Twitter, etc.) that facilitate interactive dialogue between users. The Board encourages the use of social media technologies and platforms to promote District schools and programs and to transmit information relevant to the District and/or schools.

Board members, District offices, and schools are permitted to create social media accounts that follow District guidelines, to share the school’s accomplishments with students, parents, businesses and the community. Students and parents shall be provided the opportunity to opt-out of having their child’s identification or photographic image posted to these sites. The opt-out form must be maintained in the student’s cumulative file.

When using social media, students shall comply with the same responsible use rules outlined above for Internet and District network use. In addition, students will not represent or create the inference on any social media posting that they speak on behalf of the school, the District or the Board, or its members. Use of the District’s network or and equipment for personal social media activities is prohibited. Students may be disciplined by the District for inappropriate social media behavior even if it occurs off school grounds.

Personally Owned Computing/Network Device Acceptance of Responsibility and Device Use Agreement Permission Form

I _____________________ (Name of parent or guardian), agree to let ___________________(Name of student) bring their personally owned computing device for instructional use in ________________________ (Name of school). I understand that the student named above will be permitted to use their personally owned device, subject to the conditions of this document. I understand that if I agree to allow my student to use their own device that Miami-Dade County Public Schools (M-DCPS) or _______________________ (Name of School) is not responsible for any device or data loss, theft, infection, damage or other associated costs of replacement or repair incurred during the school day or at home as a result of participation in this program. I understand that M-DCPS Staff will be unable to store, support or troubleshoot student owned devices. The student named above will take full responsibility for the device and will appropriately secure all devices when not in use. M-DCPS uses technological measures such as filtering to promote internet safety. Filtering limits students' ability to access harmful internet sites from any device connected to the M-DCPS network, but only when this equipment is used in school on the M-DCPS network. Access through cellular networks does not provide the same measures of filtering. Students should only use the M-DCPS network (not private cellular service) for internet access while on M-DCPS property. I have verified my student is aware that all aspects of Board Policy 5500 - Student Code and Discipline, Board Policy 7540.03 - Student Responsible Use of Technology, Social Media, and District Network Systems, and District Codes of Student Conduct, and Board Policy 5517.01 prevents cyber-bullying apply to the use and care of their personal device while on M-DCPS property or while involved in any M-DCPS sponsored event/activity. I am responsible for ensuring the device uses security applications to protect the devices from infection and prevent spreading infections from the devices. I understand that the purpose of allowing my student to use their own device is to participate in teacher approved activities in support of the M-DCPS curriculum. Use of these devices for unrelated activities beyond or outside the M-DCPS educational program are prohibited. Parent or Guardian's Signature _________________________________________________________

Date _______/_______/_______ Student Acceptance I agree to adhere to the AUP guidelines presented in the Student Rights and Responsibilities Booklet. I will utilize the device(s) for instructional purposes only while at any M-DCPS school or on the M-DCPS network.

Dispositivos personales/Aceptación de Responsabilidad para Usar el Dispositivo en la Red y Acuerdo para Usar el Dispositivo Formulario de Permiso

Yo, _______________________ (Nombre del padre, madre o tutor), estoy de acuerdo que ___________________________ (Nombre del estudiante) traiga a la escuela ___________________ (Nombre de la escuela) su dispositivo personal (computadora) para que lo utilice para fines educativos. Entiendo que se le permitirá al estudiante mencionado anteriormente que use su dispositivo personal, pero que estará sujeto a las condiciones que aparecen en este documento.

Entiendo que al permitir que mi estudiante use su dispositivo personal, las Escuelas Públicas del Condado Miami-Dade (M-DCPS) o ____________________ (Nombre de la escuela) no es responsable del dispositivo o dispositivos o por la pérdida de datos, robo, infección, daño o cualquier otro costo asociado para reemplazar o reparar el dispositivo por percances incurridos durante la jornada escolar o en la casa como resultado de su participación en este programa. Entiendo que el personal de las M-DCPS no será capaz de almacenar, ayudar o solucionar problemas en los dispositivos personales de los estudiantes. El estudiante que se menciona anteriormente tendrá la responsabilidad plena por el dispositivo y se asegurará de que esté a buen recaudo cuando no lo esté utilizando.

Las M-DCPS utilizan medidas tecnológicas, entre ellas, filtros para promover la seguridad en la Internet. Los filtros limitan en cualquier equipo que esté conectado a la red de las M-DCPS, la habilidad de los estudiantes de acceder sitios perniciosos en la Internet, pero esto sólo es posible cuando el equipo se usa en la escuela o en la red de las M-DCPS. Los estudiantes deben usar solamente la red de las M-DCPS (y no usar el servicio celular privado) para acceder a la Internet mientras que estén en propiedad de las M-DCPS.

He verificado que mi estudiante está consciente de todos los aspectos de la Política de la Junta Escolar 5500 – Conducta y Disciplina del Estudiante (Student Conduct and Discipline), de la Política de la Junta Escolar 7540.03 – El uso responsible por parte de los estudiantes cuando usan la tecnología, los medios sociales y los sistemas de redes del Distrito (Student Responsible Use of Technology, Social Media, and District Network Systems), también del Código de Conducta del Estudiante del Distrito (District Code of Student Conduct) y de la Política de la Junta Escolar 5517.01 que trata sobre la prevención de la intimidación por la Internet y de que también está consciente de que todos estos reglamentos aplican al uso y cuidado de su dispositivo personal mientras que está en la propiedad de las M-DCPS o mientras participa en cualquier evento o actividad auspiciado por las M-DCPS. Soy responsable de garantizar que el dispositivo use aplicaciones de seguridad para proteger a los equipos de infecciones y prevenir que se riegue la infección.

Entiendo que el motivo de permitir que mi estudiante utilice su propio dispositivo es para que participe en actividades que tienen la aprobación de los profesores a fin de apoyar el programa de estudios de las MDCPS. Está prohibido que se usen estos dispositivos en actividades no relacionadas o que están fuera del programa educacional de las M-DCPS.

Firma del padre, madre o tutor _______________________ Fecha ____/____/____

Aceptación del estudiante: Estoy de acuerdo en respetar las directrices AUP que aparecen en el folleto de los Derechos y Responsabilidades del Estudiante (Student Rights and Responsibilities). Y mientras me encuentre en cualquier escuela de las M-DCPS o en la red de las M-DCPS solamente utilizaré este dispositivo u otros dispositivos para fines educativos.

Lekòl Leta Miami-Dade County Fòm Pèmisyon Akseptasyon Akò Responsablite pou Sèvi ak Pwòp Òdinatè/Aparèy Rezo Pèsonèl

Mwen_____________________ (Name of parent or guardian), dakò pou m kite_______________________ (Name of student) pote pwòp aparèy òdinatè l i pou it ilizasyon enstriksyonèl nan _____________________________ (Name of school). Mwen konprann elèv ki site anwo a ap gen pèmisyon pou itilize pwòp aparèy li, selon kondisyon ki nan dokiman sa a. Mwen konprann si mwen dakò pou mwen pèmèt elèv mwen an sèvi avèk pwòp aparèy li, “Miami-Dade County Public Schools (M-DCPS)” (Lekòl Leta Miami-Dade County) oubyen ____________________________ (Name of school) pa responsab pou okenn pèt aparèy oubyen enfòmasyon, vòl, kontaminasyon, domaj, oubyen lòt depans pou ranplasman oubyen reparasyon ki fèt pandan jounen lekòl la oubyen lakay akoz patisipasyon nan pwogram sa a. Mwen konprann Anplwaye MDCPS pap kapab estoke, sipòte oubyen ranje pwòp aparèy elèv yo. Elèv yo site anlè a ap pran responsablite total pou aparèy la e li ap mete tout aparèy yo ansekirite, yon fason ki apwopriye, lè l pap sèvi avèk yo. M-DCPS sèvi avèk mezi teknolojik tankou filtraj pou pwomote sekirite sou Entènèt. Filtraj la limite kapasite elèv la pou ale sou sit Entènèt ki danjere sou nenpòt aparèy ki konekte sou rezo M-DCPS la, men sèlman lè y ap sèvi ak ekipman sa a nan lekòl ki sou rezo M-DCPS la. Aksè sou rezo selilè yo pa ofri menm mezi filtraj yo. Elèv ta dwe sèlman sèvi avèk rezo M-DCPS la (pa sèvi ak selilè prive) pou aksè Entènèt pandan yo sou pwopriyete MDCPS. Mwen verifye elèv mwen an okouran tout aspè Règ Komisyon Konsèy 5500 – “Student Conduct and Discipline” (Konduit ak Disiplin Elèv), Règ Komisyon Konsèy 7540.03 – “Student Responsible Use of Technology, Social Media, and District Network Systems” (Responsablite Elèv pou Sèvi ak Teknoloji, Medya Sosyal, ak Sistèm Rezo Distri a), e Kòd Konduit Elèv Distri ak Règ Komisyon Konsèy 5517.01 ki entèdi nuizans sou Entènèt aplike ak itilizasyon e swen aparèy pèsonèl pandan li sou pwopriyete M-DCPS oubyen pandan li ap patisipe nan evènman/aktivite M-DCPS patwone. Mwen responsab pou m asire elèv la itilize aplikasyon sekirite pou pwoteje aparèy yo kont kontaminasyon e anpeche yo kontamine lòt aparèy. Mwen konprann bi pèmisyon yo bay elèv mwen an pou itilize pwòp aparèy li se pou patisipe nan aktivite pwofesè apwouve pou sipòte kourikoulòm M-DCPS la. Yo entèdi itilizasyon aparèy sa yo pou aktivite ki pa apwopriye aprè oubyen andeyò pwogram edikasyonèl M-DCPS. Siyati Paran oubyen Gadyen __________________________________ Dat______/______/________ Akò Elèv: Mwen dakò pou m konfòme mwen ak machasuiv yo prezante nan Bwochi sou Dwa ak Responsablite Elèv la. Mwen ap itilize aparèy la(yo) pou bi enstriksyonèl sèlman lè mwen nan nenpòt lekòl M-DCPS oubyen lè m sou rezo M-DCPS la.
