Being successful with a BYOD program also means recommending appropriate devices. There are many great devices out there. Each has their own strengths and draw backs. Here is what we believe will have the most positive impact with our students in the classroom.
Recommended Devices for BYOD
Chromebooks This is the recommended device for students here at Sturgeon Heights School. There are many Google Chromebooks available today. They all share the benefit of being quick to log on, easy to maintain, and can run all day. Recommended Model and Store We have partnered with BCOMM in North Edmonton to bring you a really great deal if you decide to go with a Chromebook. The currently recommended model is a Lenovo N42 or N23. Here are the specs We cannot post the price publicly, but it is much better than the prices below for the specs.

Please remember
The school wants this to be a positive experience for all children and families. If purchasing a device presents a real problem, please contact the school. We will work something out for everyone that is fair and appropriate. No one will be left out. |
