Hidden Costs of BYOD
❖ Data Security
❖ Agnostic Resource creation
❖ Printing Costs
❖ Support
“Analysts typically make the case that the money saved by businesses in having their employees purchase
devices is enough to pay for recommended concomitant investments in security and
infrastructure. But Intel found this wasn't necessarily the case.”
Ackerman, E., 2013. The bring-your-own-device dilemma. Spectrum, IEEE , 50(8).
Data Security
❖ Mobile learners want offline access
❖ This places data at risk❖ MDM solutions for multiple
platforms cost e.g. Airwatch cost £32.50/user + £6 annually + £1300 set up
❖ Non-Compliance cost
Other Hidden Costs❖ Agnostic resource creation
❖ interactive eBooks using Gutenburg-Technologies eBook Factory cost £10k per year + £8k per book
❖ Yudu pro cost $12 per page
❖ redeveloping our app cost £10k
❖ Printing Cost
❖ Our students spend £150 year on printing
❖ Support Costs ?
❖ How do I ?
Loss of ‘Perks’
❖ Data Security and Access to partner WiFi
❖ Paperless School
❖ Designing for lowest common denominator
❖ Equity, Inclusivity and sense of community
The feeling of being part of a group, as all students owned their
iPad did enhance initial motivation of use, and also aided group communication and sharing.
“cause all medical students like in our year like have them, you can kind of feel
part of a group"
