Approach to Planning and Deployment

GAP Evaluation

A gap analysis is process that compares actual performance or results with what was expected or desired. The method provides a way to identify suboptimal or missing strategies, structures, capabilities, processes, practices, technologies or skills, and then recommends steps that will help the company meet its goals.

Under the Gap evaluation the hardware, software and teaching skill details are analysed by Creative professionals and a Gap report is prepared. The Gap report contains all necessary information which would allow the institution plan the necessary budget and team to fund the project.

Deployment Scenarios

Based on leadership consultation with school, teacher feedback and school vision, one of the modes of deployment model is selected.

One to may deployment

Shared iPad deployment

One to one deployment

One to many Deployment

There’s a reason both teachers and students love iPad. It enables endless opportunities to create hands-on, customizable learning experiences. Reach more students with apps and books geared to any level or subject. It also helps facilitators to develop their own interactive materials, organize and deliver the lessons with lots of digital tools, and discover a world of possibilities with iPad.

To test this world of endless possibilities and to make it a part of teaching permanently, a One to many iPad deployment is considered a pilot project by the schools to understand how various stake holders respond to change. Teachers (25-50) are identified by the school for the pilot project and faculty are trained on relevant tools through Digital professional development. Common Classes where the teachers teach are equipped with required technology to implement their learnings of DPD.

Shared iPad Deployment

  • Shared iPad enables schools to share devices among students, while still providing a personalised experience.* Before class begins, teachers can assign any student any shared iPad. Students know which devices to use because their pictures are on the Lock screens, and they can access their personal content using a password or easy-to-remember four-digit PIN. Because a local copy of their data is stored on this device, after students log in, their homework, apps and assignments are exactly as they left them. So teachers and technology managers won’t lose time backing up or wiping data between classes.

Learning Environment

Innovative schools use technology to support learning experiences that are active, personal, collaborative, and relevant. These experiences are designed to empower learners to be creators who believe their work matters.

Teaching Environment

Innovative schools use technology to inspire a growth mindset in teachers and support their work as learning experience designers.
