Today, technology is within all of our reach through mobile phones, tablets and other devices. In addition to being safe in our physical world, we also need to be concerned about 'Cyber Safety' or 'Digital Safety'.

Cyber Safety is one of our primary concerns in AISD. We believe that students should have access to technology resources. Having that access, students need to understand how to be good digital citizens and use resources to enhance learning. Find out more about Digital Citizenship and other tips on how to be safe on our Cyber Safety for Students page.

Our staff is expected to show digital citizenship just as much as our students. Every year they sign an 'Acceptable Use Policy' (AUP), a promise they will live by the rules of safe online behavior. Because the safety of your student comes first, the AISD Technology Department is not only training all staff on Cyber Safety Awareness and Response, but your student will also receive a lesson on this topic. Among other things, Cyberbullying and predators will be addressed. To learn more about AISD Policies and what is in place for your child's protection, please visit the Cyber Safety for Parents page.

You and your family can also be proactive by talking to each other about this topic. The Technology website has a wealth of resources for you to review with your student. Go to the Cyber Safety for Students and Cyber Safety for Parents pages to find out more.

-Where should phones be kept during the class?
-Can students access the wi-fi network of the school with their mobiles?
-What type of activities can pupils engage in, and what type of content can be consulted while usin mobile phone in school?

 Module 3: IF you have decided to move to the cloud here are the important steps:

# data[].attributes.body
1. Define a strategy: your objectives and motivation – why move; define the services you want to migrate and which to keep local
2. Identify the needs
3. Investigate the different solutions from providers: how they work, support provided, the existence of a user community, the location of the service, whether importing and exporting data is easy (interoperability), what help is given to import and export and the cost
4. Draw up a short list of candidates and evaluate each in detail
5. Make your decision
6. Check the Service Level Agreement and user licences and if necessary ask for changes
7. Plan the migration to the new service, e.g. user accounts, data, and make a training plan for users so they can use the new service and won’t come back to you with problems. 8. Implement the plan. And enjoy the new service!

·         Your current setup and how to improve it? Do you support BYOD?

We use wifi and cable connection, but only  for teacher. I totally support BYOD but we do not have any rules about it. So I use BYOD (to answer a quizz, to read QR code, to make collage or crossword, to use maps  and etc.) only when my students have the internet in their mobiles.

·         Do you consider them as opportunities or threats?

I think BYOD is an opportunity, but rules must be defined.

·         What technical adaptations would be required, if any?

Some school tablets (for the students that do not have smartphones) and access to school wifi.

- Define some rules;
- Plan the task with use of different devices (mobile, computers);

·           Ways to improve the performance of your current infrastructure? How you could expand the school network? We have good school network: quite new computers, good internet connection, projectors almost in every classroom, some smart boards. It would be nice to have more smartboards and laptops, but I think that mostly we need to give the possibility for student to bring their own device and to use school wifi.

·         Ways to make it more secure? New types of devices or services you could put in place? Internet network should be split in 2 SSIDs: for teachers which is not filtered and for students  - which is filtered.

·         How to provide technical support and ensure the network performs reliably? ICT administrator should be available all the work day to support teachers, students and staffs.

·         What is your school using ICT for?

o   Is there a school vision for ICT? How are projects designed? Through individual initiatives? Through a more general school policy? Yes, In addition to traditional education, we use distance learning. WE use  distance learning environment Moodle , in which most teachers created the materials of their subject for 9-12 grades.

o    Why is ICT not being used in some subjects? Which ones? There are some older teachers that refuse the changes and use ICT only to show some video films. Its depends not on the subject, but on the teacher ICT skills.

o    New pedagogical uses of technology? Every year we have a trainings about use of ICT. But there are still some teachers that do not want to use them in classroom

·         How do you give access to technology to your students?

o    Computer lab? 2 Computer labs with internet and projector.

o    Computers in classroom?Every class have at least one PC for teachers, who may let students use them.

o    Individual devices? Students aren´t allowed to use ICT devices. Students may use them in their free time, but under their own responsability.

o    Is your network capacity sufficient to meet current and future needs? Quite yes

Our school has both a wifi network which is accessable only for the teachers and staff and a wire network for stationary personal computers. The connectivity speed is usually high enough (about 1Gbps). We protect access to school network  by passwords only known by insiders. The main challenge we face is attack from the outside (illegal attempts to connect to our network).

-The server runs on Linux and uses Squid Proxy Server to do all the necessary filtering.
- The same server also acts as a firewall.
_ We may upgrade the server to more powerfull computer with RAID hard disk and to  use internet with Fibre connection (add more wireless routers).
- to install new wiring and new APs and switches.
-internet network now provides roaming throughout all the school and is split in 2 SSIDs: for teachers which is not filtered and for students  - which is filtered.
