Increasing device loss from 1:1 programs
1:1 device programs within K-12 school districts have helped boost learning outcomes for students while providing greater flexibility. They have also however led to a greater risk of device loss, making the job of IT administrators to track asset inventory and enforce security policies challenging. On a given day, students may take their devices to their classroom, library, extra-curricular activities and back home. Devices can thus easily be misplaced, lost, and fall in the wrong hands. To make matters worse, dwindling annual budgets means investing in the right tools and personnel to tackle these challenges is more difficult.
Challenges that school districts face today
- Increasing annual device loss rates as a result of missing devices.
- Efficiently reclaiming devices at the end of the school year to reduce device loss.
- Lack of tools and manpower to deal with the management of 1:1 device programs.
- Reduction in annual technology budgets for asset management tools and manpower.
