The Anoka-Hennepin School District supplies mobile devices to certain employee groups. The mobile devices could be, but aren’t limited to, laptops and iPads. The purpose of deploying mobile devices is with the intent that staff benefit from the use of these technologies in a way that helps them better meet the end goals of an educational institution. The purpose of this document is to clarify any expectations around use, and provide guidance on how to handle situations including repair, theft or a leave of absence.

• Mobile devices are intended for work-based purposes, whether onsite or offsite. The Acceptable Use Policy and Guidelines apply for all uses.

• Protect any documents or files that contain personally identifiable data about you or others related to the organization.

• Please run all security updates when prompted.

• Staff are expected to exercise a reasonable degree of care in the day-to-day use of technology and to protect it from theft, misuse, or neglect. In the event there is demonstrated lack of care, employees may be responsible for part or all of the cost of repair or replacement.

• Please report any issues with devices to your building’s technology staff.

• If you will be experiencing any leave of 10 or more days, please make sure the devices are turned in to your building staff while on leave.

• Please report any lost, stolen, or damaged technology while on or off school property. The incident MUST be reported within 24hrs to the principal or technology staff. If stolen, please contact law enforcement or other appropriate officials.

• Do not order any replacement parts (chargers, adapters, …) without consulting building technology staff.

• If your employment with the district is ending, please make sure the device(s) and all accessories are returned to your building.

No. Although we encourage teachers to leverage the student owned technology tools in their classroom for learning, there is no requirement of teachers to allow this. You are in charge of the way your class functions and the rules that apply.

Students who cannot access the network or who may have technical issues with their technology tool need to take care of this issue by referring to the user’s manual. You are welcome to help if you choose, but it is not a staff member’s responsibility to ensure that student owned technology is functioning properly.

Students must manage their own technology and should take care of any technical issues. The teacher or campus technology facilitator is not responsible for ensuring that any student-owned device is functioning properly.

This is not an AUP violation because the student is not bypassing the filter on the GUEST network, but instead using a provider’s data plan.

Any disciplinary infractions that occur from using technology tools should be referred to a building administrator. This would be a student code of conduct issue.

Any time a theft occurs, the student should contact a school administrator or police liaison officer to make him/her aware of the offense.

Yes. The Acceptable Use Policy remains in effect even when students are using their own laptop, smart phone, iPad etc. Each time students attempt to access the network at school they will be prompted to accept the terms of service which include the Acceptable Use Policy. Violating the terms of the Acceptable Use Policy would be a student code of conduct violation and would be dealt by an administrator.

Like your network folder, printers are networked differently on the campus and will not be available when you login to the guest network. Some printing solutions include, sharing your document with the teacher in Google Docs or saving it to a flash drive and printing it from home or another school computer. Keep in mind that using school printers is at the discretion of the teacher.

Students will be able to use web-based applications and tools available on their device.

Schools will continue to provide computer labs and other devices for class checkout.

Teachers are responsible for monitoring students’ devices during class.
