2nd+mac+cart+poll

Staff, I'm looking for your opinion on the best use of our 2nd mac cart. Here's a couple of ideas that have come up. All ideas welcome!

Thanks for your comments! Michele H.
 * 1) 1. Locate the 2nd mac cart in the Kdg/1st/2nd grade hall way. Storage?
 * 2) 2. Have mac books in the classroom for students. Teachers would be responsible?

Please read the discussion board. Some people have posted their ideas there, too.

 * My concern is that I would like the ability to have a class set. If we break up one of the sets it limits this potential. Personally, I think we should keep the laptops together as a class set. Where we keep them... as long as it is a secure location. -SK

I like the idea of keeping them all together as well. It's nice to not have to go looking for a class set when you need them; they're always together. I also think it's a good idea to keep one MAC cart in each wing of the building. It's a long haul down to the library from my end of the school! Where to keep it in this wing, however? How is that storage room at the end of the hallway? Is there room in there? Is it always locked? Is there an outlet for the cart? -KO

Umm. Storage and making sure the cart is locked and all macs are returned to the cart each night... Does anyone on that end of the hallway want to take on this responsibility? The Lab does not have the space for 2 mac carts. MH
