Schools that have a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policy are encouraging independent learning and asking teachers to innovate in a fashion that would’ve been unimaginable to most just a few years ago.
For teachers, the opportunities and challenges are extensive. They need to be supported by the school leadership, technically and professionally, as they explore new pedagogical approaches. The ideal of “classrooms without walls” becomes possible when a teacher creates the “goldilocks conditions” that allow students to collaborate with experts and peers beyond the school gates.
