well, the management folks who are responsible for early childhood have approached me (the IT side) about getting some new technology in the classrooms
these would be for 3 and 4 year olds...
they currently have PCs with touchscreen monitors (mostly ancient CRTs) on updated windows 7 machines running a few really rudimentary educational programs...
i don't even know where to start with the following:
how to manage ~50 devices in a way that doesn't include us manually installing a number of apps on 50 different mobile devices
what hardware? android? ios? some rugged model that is better suited?
software? what apps, do you simply leave these machines open to be played with, or do you have software on these organized in such a way that students can only access certain apps so they're not messing up settings, etc...
i don't really know where to start... was hoping someone here was in a similar situation
