Protect your infrastructure and your classrooms.Dell Connected Security solutions provide academic institutions with end-to-end protection from the data center to the classroom, ensuring a safe and secure technology environment for educators, administrators and students.

Staff and student laptops, tablets and mobile devices expose schools to viruses picked up from unsecured networks. Dell next-generation firewalls help organizations of all sizes to safeguard their networks against today’s ever-evolving threats.

SonicWALL TZ Series firewalls combine Unified Threat Management (UTM) security with high performance to safeguard smaller organizations against the latest threats. They feature intrusion prevention, anti-malware, content/URL filtering and application control, and also offer broad support for laptops, smartphones and tablets.

Dell Networking Solutions for EducationToday’s educational institutions are challenged to keep pace with the constant evolution of learning environments and technologies. New classroom initiatives, like 1:1 and BYOD, create an ever-expanding need for network connectivity that must reliably support a variety of devices. Dell has solutions to solve this problem, ranging from small scale, single building installations, to large campus wide solutions.

The ease of use and scalability of the new Dell Networking X-Series switches makes it ideal for remote small scale deployments. These smart managed GUI based switches in conjunction with Dell’s W-Series Wireless Instant Access Points (W-IAPs), and the SonicWALL TZ series firewalls bring a level of access and security that, until now, has not been easily achievable on this scale and with limited IT resources.

For larger deployments, Dell’s Campus Reference architecture is built upon Dell Networking N-Series switches, Dell Networking C-Series chassis, Dell Networking W-Series wireless and Dell SonicWall 6600 series network security appliances to provide the latest technology. By addressing speed, bandwidth, redundancy and failure-resistant networks it ensures that classroom learning can continue to grow, uninterrupted.

Checklist for a Successful Student Computing Rollout

Establish a shared vision with community stakeholdersStrong leadership and involvement from all stakeholders, including students, helps ensure all needs are met and builds a shared sense of urgency for change.

Define the learning model and common language that will put the vision into practiceThe model should be experiential, authentic, empowering student voice and should embrace failure as a critical step in learning. Common language should reflect the district vision, core values and learning model and will help facilitate communication.

Create a digital content strategy that meets the educational goalsInventory the technology currently being used and add new tools as needed to support the core curriculum. Productivity and creativity tools are a critical part of this strategy, as they are essential to empowering students to be producers, not just consumers.

Select devices that support your learning goalsMake sure the devices suit the learning objectives and support how student groups will be using them. Since students will be using these devices, include them in the decision process.

Get your infrastructure in orderEnsure your district’s infrastructure — in particular the network, security, and storage— can sustain the increased demand and meet compliance requirements. Start with an assessment of the existing environment and determine what’s needed to get it ready for the rollout.

Build a phased deployment programDevelop a deployment plan that details how students will get their devices, set them up and learn how to use them. Consider establishing digital citizenship policies and training for students. Establish support centers on each campus where students, teachers, and administrators can get assistance on a wide variety of issues.

Invest in professional developmentHelp teachers adopt new teaching strategies using technology through a multi-pronged professional learning program. Establish professional learning communities for educators to share and learn from their experiences.
