HHS 1:1Laptop Initiative
Building a successful 1:1 learning environment involves planning and implementation in the areas of business,
technology, and teaching.
![Page 3: The secret to supporting technology in a 1:1 school.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062323/56815a79550346895dc7e187/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
It is the collaborative effort between these three areas that make a 1:1 learning initiative successful.

“The technical aspect of a 1:1 program is a key component in starting and sustaining the initiative and should be treated as
a core requirement in the overall plan.”

A Help Desk should be in a convenient location for student, faculty, and staff to receive face-to-face technical support.
Key Help Desk Aspects:LocationAvailabilitySupport Medium
“Be sure to have a member of your staff visible and available at least during daytime class hours.” - Laptop Help Desk, University of Austinhttp://www.apple.com/education/profiles/utaustin_coe/location.html
HELP
DESK
The concept of a Help Desk is a change in the traditional support models of schools because the support doesn’t come to the users but the users now come to the support.

The technology staff in a 1:1 initiative must show leadership, dedication, and be team oriented in order to be successful.

A database system for inventory tracking is essential because it creates the connection between the user and the laptop.
“A barcode scanner and student ID card reader will greatly streamline the hardware check-in process.” - Laptop Help Desk, University of Austin
INVENTORY
"Before computers arrive, develop a database to use for tracking and inventory purposes.”

With CCU staff working staggered schedules, it is difficult to keep everyone informed on the status of each repair. Repair forms are helpful in communicating details about the problem.
With up to 60 laptops in the CCU at any given time, repair forms are extremely helpful in keeping everything organized.

HHS Enrollment Process:
Front Office:• Student pays fees• Issued identification card
CCU:• Students shows fees receipt• Laptop is assigned in database• Parent signs loan agreement and acceptable use policy• “ScanSnap” of Loan Agreement• “Care and Feeding” for (Freshman and new students)• Student is given the laptop
At enrollment, the student will receive the same laptop they had assigned the previous year.

The CCU has created a database to track which laptop each user has been assigned.I
NVENTORY
When a student checks out a laptop, the CCU staff will scan the barcode on the laptop and then the barcode on the student’s ID card.

Every student is assigned a specific charger and they are responsible for returning at end of the year.I
NVENTORY
Due to the number of adapters not returned the first year, this policy was put into place.
If a student looses or damages his charger, they pay for the charger in the front office. When the student presents the receipt to the CCU staff, they will issue them a new charger.

HHS has implemented a strategy that has significantly reduced paper usage in the building.M
ANAGEMENT
There are two HP 4350n printers located in the library for general student usage. There are a few other department printers, but access to these are restricted.
Whenever possible, printers are stocked with paper that is already used on one side. A student will request clean paper if it is required for a class assignment.

USD 489 repairs all of its laptops “in-house” and receives labor compensation for parts covered under warranty.
The base rate for logic boards, hard drives, and screens is $30. The base rate is multiplied by a factor between 0.75 and 1.5, depending on service excellence score for last month.
