[aisle] 1:1--Loaners from Library

[Kiss, Susan]

I've worked in two different 1:1 districts during the past 7 years.  This has been tough.  You need to start with admin.  Admin needs to make it clear to the parents and students that students are responsible for taking care of their own devices, which means charging them every night.  Our library followed the admin direction and did not loan out chargers or devices.  You just need to get students into the habit of being responsible and telling them you do not loan out devices or chargers.  It's a life lesson.  Good luck!

Subject: [aisle] 1:1--Loaners from Library

Hello,
We have found our way into a 1:1 program over the last year and are struggling with students who don't come with a charged machine every day. For now, we are checking out daily loaners to students who have issues or who show up without a charged machine. We are finding several students who are habitually using loaners instead of bringing the 1:1 that they were issued. How does your school handle this? What are the rules/processes at your schools for students who don't show up with a charged machine?

I would appreciate any help you can provide!
