21 Steps to 1-to-1 Success

The iPads for Learning trial gives participating students access to an iPad on a 1-to-1 basis, twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week for the duration of the trial.

1-to-1 programs provide students with a digital device to maximise their opportunities for learning. 1-to-1 devices can also provide networked technology for effective two way communication and collaboration between teachers and students and extend learning beyond the classroom.

The Department provided participating schools with iPads and supporting documents to effectively implement the trial.

The In Their Hands: iPads for Learning Trial; 21 Steps to 1-to-1 Success outlines four phases for successful implementation of 1-to-1 devices:

• Planning
• Preparing
• Implementing
• Evaluating

The 21 step sequence is inter-relational, and may be considered out of sequential order. These steps provide guidelines for leadership teams to use when they implement a 1-to-1 program. For each step there is an overview, questions to consider, suggestions and links to relevant resources.
