As you consider a technology initiative at your location, use the attached check-list to analyze the issues, avoid problems and make the most of your investment. The checklist applies whether the devices are owned by the location, by the user or a combination of both. We believe you will find the decision-making process is helpful for you to focus on the "big picture," and is useful even if your location is not currently planning any specific technology initiatives.

When used creatively and correctly, technology can help make learning and working more successful and individually rewarding. Technological devices can be PCs, desktop/notebook/netbook computers, tablets, smartphones or other in-struments that enable users to go online and perform a wide range of tasks alone or in collaboration with others, at school, work, home and/or elsewhere.
