“Model” polices that are available on the internet expedite time schools spend on writing them. The stages of policy development are 1) Identify the need: anticipation of need e.g child protection policies need to be in place from day one, in response to need e.g in response to government policy. 2) Identify who will take lead responsibility, e.g. headteacher, subject leader. 3) gather information: are there any legal responsibilities, is understanding error free?
Schools these days have many resources available to them. Most parents or guardians when looking for a school that they would like to send a child to would visit a schools website and read all the policies, and activities a child can get involved with. They would also see how their child would be educated at the school. Once a child is enrolled at the school the parent or guardian will keep a close eye on the website for updates. Most schools will send out monthly newsletters so that anything on the website is handed out or put on a notice board outside the school.

The school would need to inform students they should expect having little privacy while using the school’s computers as they are routinely monitored. They can be monitored in various ways, including the usage of software programs and technical monitoring tools, which allows remote monitoring of the computer screen as well as the following communication patterns.

It is suggested all staff members who utilize computers and the internet consistently should undergo professional development training to become aware of students behaviors which may indicate inappropriate computer use (Willard 2007b). Another way to supervise on campus internet use and hold students accountable is to require them to print their browsing history at the end of their computer session.

Running head: BYOD Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) Karen Serene Dunston-Carr Alvernia University Foundations of Communication Dr. Tiffanie Steward-Deloach November 29, 2012 Abstract Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) refers to technology models where students in grades K-12 bring a personally owned device to school for the purpose of learning.

Research shows that some schools opted to participate in a trial program before fully launching a BYOD policy.
Anything is possible in today’s day and age. As a mother who homeschools her children thru public online schools I would have to say that I am sure that this issue of standardized tests is more than likely the case today. When President Bush Sr. signed the No Child Left Behind Act in the early 2000’s it seems to me that this act has promoted the behavior as is being discussed on this board to be able to rise again; or to continue on in a sense as this act brought about school reform in respects to how the teachers started teaching then.

According to a U.S. Department of Education document, “A Guide to Education and No Child Left Behind” (2004) the origins of the Act and the
The British schools of the 18th and 19th Century were chaotic and fights between students were nothing out of the ordinary. Thus, many parents preferred for their children to be tutored at home until they are ready for the university. Therefore, the government imposed the use of school uniforms in order reduce the chaotic fights and violence in schools.
