Kenton County: Enabling the BYOD Campus

Gap between the computing needs of students and staff and the number of district owned laptops (1 laptop per 4 students/staff)

Aging network infrastructure

Limited IT budget

Problem

Enhanced learning - improved access to information

Doubled number of computing resources available to students - >4,700 personally owned devices on the wireless network

Value

WLAN 8100: Scalable wireless network that could meet their BYOD needs today and in the future

Ethernet Routing Switch 8800

Solution

School District on outskirts of Cincinnati, Ohio

23 school facilities, 1,500 teachers & staff, 14, 700 students

“In the past, primary and secondary education was all about memorization. The Internet and BYOD are changing that, driving critical thinking and student creativity, fueled by wider access to information. Since our wireless network was

built, new equipment has been pouring into the district every day. The influx of technology has been contagious.”—Vicki Fields, district technology coordinator, Kenton County School District, Kentucky


Eries 1 Boces: Driving One-to-One Computing

Widening gaps in the number of computers districts can afford to provide to staff, teachers & students

Dwindling budgets

Aging network infrastructure unable to accommodate BYOD explosion

Problem

Improved access to educational and technical resources

Better collaboration between faculty & students

Advanced communications infrastructure that is simpler to operate & maintain

Value

Modern, Mobile & Connected campus

Wireless LAN 8100

Ethernet Edge & Core Switching

Solution

School Districts in and around Buffalo, NY

20 school facilities, 1,500 teachers & staff, 74, 441 students

“The ultimate question we ask ourselves each day is: How can we provide the educational and technical resources that our kids need? Paradoxically, soft economic conditions will help the BYOD movement take hold sooner rather than later. Due to the budget realities, these types of programs are vital to fill the computing needs gap. In a year or two, programs

like ours inevitably will be the norm, not an outlier.”—-- Jill Holbrook, associate director, Technology, Erie 1 BOCES, Buffalo, N.Y.
