2020-2021 T4L rollout device catalogue I Contents I 2


The T4L rollout is a key initiative of the NSW Department of Education. The objective is to ensure NSW school students maintain access to technology that effectively supports teaching and learning. Following the postponement last year, we plan to complete two rollouts in 2021. The first rollout is in Terms 1-2 and the second rollout in Terms 3-4. The first rollout is part of our continued response to COVID-19 and takes into account the possibility of another remote learning situation. As such, it will offer a selection of mobile devices, in order to maximise the number of devices available for students. A review of the devices on offer with our key stakeholder groups, is planned for the second rollout.

The equipment delivered to schools: • h as been tested as fit-for-purpose for use in the classroom with support available through EDConnect and ICT Field Operations team • a ssists schools to refresh their ICT hardware with the latest equipment • p rovides technology hardware to enhance digital teaching and learning in the classroom.

If you have any questions or need further information about the T4L rollout, email the team at T4L@det.nsw.edu.au

ICT PLUS feature How can I use ICT PLUS to help me get the most out of my allocation?

ICT PLUS (Planning, Leading, Utilisation, Strategy) assists principals and school leaders in making data-informed decisions. It currently provides insight into “managed” device data for Google, Microsoft and limited Apple devices with more Apple insights being added throughout 2021. FYI | “Managed” means machines that are connected to the network and run the Department’s Standard Operating Environment (SOE) image. Access to ICT PLUS is currently open to all school principals and field operations teams. School principals can in turn delegate access to other staff members via AMU.

The Planning Dashboard in ICT PLUS can answer the following questions for your school’s managed devices: • H ow many managed devices in your school are out of warranty? Check the Warranty chart.

• H ow many managed devices have 1 year or less warranty remaining? Download the Devices List and filter by warranty date. • Are they desktops or laptops? Click on the “Expired Warranty” segment of the Warranty chart, then take a look at the Form Factor chart.

Watch this 1-minute video to learn about the tool and what it can do for you. Hot tip: ICT PLUS is best used in the Chrome browser.

If you’re unfamiliar with the terminology used in the tool or would like to know more information about ICT PLUS, select the Help and Support page in the left-hand side menu of ICT PLUS. This page contains User Guides, Frequently Asked Questions and a Data Glossary, along with information about where the data comes from and how often it is updated in ICT PLUS. ICT PLUS sources data from multiple existing systems, making the various sources accessible in one place. Have you found that the data in ICT PLUS doesn’t line up to what you’ve found in your school? Please reach out to let us know and we’ll escalate your concern to the relevant ITD team, you can contact us directly on ictplus-devteam@det.nsw.edu.au BACK TO CONTENTS

Teach and learn with Windows 10 STEM and code

Presentations

Windows 10 brings computer science to life. Create augmented reality experiences with Paint 3D, PowerPoint and 3D Viewer apps, and use Windows apps such as Minecraft, Lego EV3 and MakeCode to learn to code!

PowerPoint has come a long way since 1997 and on Windows 10, it’s even better. You can insert 3D models, create animations, and use Design Ideas to create impressive presentations. Students also have the option to use Sway to create online presentations where they can also record their voice, add multimedia content, plus images and text.

Classroom and learning management Microsoft Teams is THE hub for teaching and learning on Windows 10 with quizzes, assignments, collaboration and more. With Microsoft Learning Tools built into Teams and 365 to support reading comprehension, line spacing and a picture dictionary, everything you need for digital learning is found in one space.

Multimodal documents

Voice Recorder and Video Editor are built-in apps for Windows 10 that allow simple creation of high-impact videos, as well as audio recordings of voice for podcasts. Nothing to download and so simple to use!

Whiteboard and OneNote bring learning to life on the digital page. Microsoft Whiteboard is a collaborative, digital whiteboard that makes it easy for a class to come together to share ideas in real time. Work naturally with digital ink, using pens or fingers to bring ideas to life in a limitless space. Board contents are automatically and securely saved so they can easily be shared. OneNote is a digital notebook that teachers can use to organise class notes, create interactive lesson plans, brainstorm with others, and engage in and encourage teamwork.

Collaboration

Creativity tools

The Office 365 experience is better on Windows 10. You can choose to access your cloud documents via Microsoft Edge or Office desktop software including Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote, allowing students and teachers to collaborate in live time on their files saved in Teams or OneDrive.

Windows Ink functionality in Windows 10 contains applications and features that enable pen computing to create in Paint 3D, Whiteboard app, and even the Adobe Suite! Students can capture thoughts and express ideas in OneNote with or without a digital stylus and can even annotate PDFs and webpages in Microsoft Edge!

User scenario We have a couple of existing computer labs that are still functioning well. But we are keen to explore the power of mobile devices by using our allocation to acquire some devices that can be stored in a mobile cart and shared amongst students and classes. We use Google Classroom to coordinate our digital classroom and teachers and students are familiar with Google Docs, Sheets and Slides.

BACK TO CONTENTS

Chromebooks suit our requirements perfectly as they are quick to load and students can sign in simply and easily with their DoE user ID. It is the perfect shared device. Their great value also means we could get enough devices to commence our mobile program quickly. Plus since we primarily use G Suite tools and we don’t rely on installed programs, Chromebooks are optimised for our digital learning environment.

User scenario

Our teachers and students use iPad regularly. Teachers use Apple classroom to manage digital experiences with students, completing creative tasks such as filmmaking with iMovie and Clips, digital drawing with Tayasui Sketches School, and creating amazing presentations and digital books with Keynote and Pages. But these devices are starting to get old and we need a replacements.

BACK TO CONTENTS

We considered other devices, but the portability, durability and suitability for our school’s learning needs, meant the decision to choose iPads again was easy. With Jamf Pro management licenses included, maintaining our fleet is a breeze. Finally, as our students and teachers store most of their work in the cloud, the iPad’s 32GB of storage is all we need!

User scenario We have a successful BYOD iPad program and are keen to provide the opportunity for students to take their skills to the next level with a mobile multimedia lab. Students can complete simple tasks on their own devices, but we need high performance machines for them to explore the full range of graphics, music and video creation, using industrystandard programs.

BACK TO CONTENTS

MacBook Airs tick all these boxes and considering an additional need to make this lab mobile, the MacBook Air is the perfect device for our needs. Whilst in the past the management of these devices would have made this choice difficult, the inclusion of Jamf Pro management, means we can now manage both our iPads and Macs from the one console.
