What is BYOD?

​

"Bring your own device" (BYOD) refers to technology models where students bring a personally owned device to school for the purpose of learning. A personally owned device is any technology device brought into the school and owned by a student (or the student's family), staff or guests" (Alberta Education, 2012).

​

BYOD is a solution where students bring their own laptop to school in order to access the internet and/or school network by 4G or

Wi-Fi.
