3 About the Program Chancellor State College will implement a Year 6 12 Laptop Program in This handbook has been developed as a guide for parents and students to assist in making their own decisions about which option is best for their situation. Please note: This handbook is subject to change, the most current handbook will always be available on the school website. Technology at Chancellor Chancellor State College has been at the forefront of education delivery through the use of technology. It is a tool that enhances pedagogy, facilitates the creation and sharing of knowledge and allows differentiation in learning. Technology is more than a method of retrieving information. Teacher emphasis is on learning intent and teachers use ICT in the classroom in an educationally purposeful way to convey this intent. A 1:1 student laptop program: Enhances independence and self-initiated learning among students Extends student learning beyond the classroom Promotes the development of 21 st Century teaching and learning Research shows: Students who access their own computers take greater pride and ownership over the knowledge they create (with a flow on to more flexible forms of schooling) 1:1 programs extend formal learning communities to include parents, siblings and other people important in students lives ICT in the Australian Curriculum ICT is represented in the Australian Curriculum as a general capability: o Competence in ICT Students develop ICT competence as they learn to use ICT effectively and appropriately when investigating, creating and communicating ideas and information at school, at home, at work and in their communities. (ACARA, 2010) Students develop ICT competence when they learn to: o Investigate with ICT o Create with ICT o Communicate with ICT o Operate with ICT Laptops at Chancellor State College 2015 Information and Procedures Handbook Page 3

5 Option One Chancellor Laptop Program (CLP) The Chancellor Laptop Program aims to provide a laptop option for parents and guardians of students in Years 6 9.

Other Details: Secure, Filtered and Monitored Work Environment Participation in the Chancellor Laptop program provides a secure, filtered and monitored work environment through the use of Education Queensland s BlueCoat, Symantec Corporate Virus Scanner and monitoring software used by IT and Administration staff called ABTutor. This provides staff with access to laptops connected to the school network enabling staff to view and monitor the work being done by students whilst at school. Once a laptop is disconnected from the school network, AB Tutor does not monitor the work being done by a student. Laptops at Chancellor State College 2015 Information and Procedures Handbook Page 5

Laptops at Chancellor State College 2015 Information and Procedures Handbook Page 6
7 Option Two Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) The Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) option allows for students in Years 7 12 to purchase their own laptop and use it at school. The BYOD option provides students with access to part of the school network, internet, printing and class resources. Only devices that are owned by Education Queensland can be connected to the School Network. Bring Your Own Devices will have limited access to part of the school network through a device called the BYOD Gateway. Parents will be required to supply: A device that meets the minimum hardware and software specifications provided in this handbook. It is highly recommended that the device provided is a laptop. Any repairs required. The IT staff at Chancellor State College will not provide repair support to BYOD devices. How it will Work Security of BYOD, Damage/Theft - Insurance As part of the security strategy in regard to digital devices, all BYOD laptops and devices must be engraved on the bottom of the machine with the student name ie First Name and Surname. Check with your Home and Contents Insurance company regarding damage or theft of the device. While the College will continue to deal with inappropriate behaviour in line with existing policies, the College is not liable for any damage or replacement costs incurred while the device is at school or travelling to and from school. Any student who does damage or steal another student s laptop may be disciplined according to the College Responsible Behaviour Plan Lockers have been provided in the IT Foyer for any student to use for the temporary storage of their laptop. Laptops at Chancellor State College 2015 Information and Procedures Handbook Page 7
8 Hardware Minimum Specifications - Bring Your Own Device The College recommends that any laptop or tablet meets the minimum specifications below to enable suitability for curriculum based activities. The minimum provided reflect those of devices that are able to be purchased by the College so will ensure comparability with College owned devices. College ICT technicians will make every effort to enable connectivity of devices which meet these minimum specifications, assuming there are no technical or other issues outside of their control. An attempt will be made to connect other devices, but parents and students should be aware that connectivity may not be possible if there are technical or other issues. Apple computers are used in the Visual and Performing Arts faculties at this point in time. Student subject choices and interests should be considering when deciding whether to purchase a Windows or Apple laptop.

9 Option Three - NSSCF The National Secondary Schools Computer Fund program will continue in 2015 and will cease by the end of Through a full payment and the completion of NSSCF Participation Agreement form, students will have access to: A Take Home Laptop School licensed software Technical Support Full access to the school network Secure, filtered and monitored work environment Accidental Damage Protection (ADP) School printers access Only students participating in the NSSCF Take Home program will be provided with these machines. NSSCF Funds Ceased The Student Laptop Program at Chancellor State College has been a highly effective initiative. For the past four years, every Year 9 to 12 student has been provided with a school owned device for use in every lesson, every day. This has been made possible through the federally funded National Secondary School Computer Fund. The National Secondary School Computer Fund (NSSCF) has invested $2.3 billion nationally to provide for new information and communications technology for secondary schools. Chancellor State College ensured that these funds were fully accessed and utilised. This program has been an important element of the Australian Government s Digital Education Revolution agenda and has helped address national ICT shortages in secondary schools. Due to the cessation of the federally funded NSSCF program, a future plan has been developed and will be implemented to ensure that this 20th century way of working continues in Years This opportunity will be extended to include Years 6 8 in NSSCF Phase Out Plan 2015 Year 10, 11, Year 11, Year 12 Laptops at Chancellor State College 2015 Information and Procedures Handbook Page 9
10 Frequently Asked Questions For all Laptops/Devices Will I need to bring the device to School every day? Yes. Teachers are transforming the way they teach to take advantage of students having unlimited access to technology.

Will the school assist me with home internet connection settings and issues? No. Your home internet provider or local computer technician can assist you with these enquiries. Do I need to back up? Yes. It is the student s responsibility at all times to back up all files. The school assessment policy clearly states that loss of data due to information technology problems is not an acceptable reason for assessment extensions. How is the device kept safe? It is the student s responsibility to have their device with them at all times. Will the teacher be able to provide technical support in class?
