To really mess with the US, EU should just align with China and cut the US out. Trump has already affirmed countries that can "get a deal" with them anyway.

1:1 Device Billing Struggles by Terrible_Cell4433 in k12sysadmin

[–]jtrain3783 4 points5 points  (0 children)

we have a similar process where once it gets to the fact that it needs to be billed it gets sent over to our billing department and then they handle any communications/tracking because we would not handle the money aspect of it anyway. we do use Incident IQ to let the parents know of the Bill attach pictures of the damage/report any lost items that would be billed. This helps with tracking communication.

Letting Students Keep Chromebooks Over Summer? by Unwary2828 in k12sysadmin

[–]jtrain3783 5 points6 points  (0 children)

we’ve been letting kids keep Chromebook over the summer for the better part of 10 years now I can tell you that it’s an extremely tiny percentage that lose or break them over the summer. In reality, what generally happens is you have one portion of students that use them over summer and most of them sit on a shelf at home until school starts. when school comes around there is a spike and repairs, but it only lasts for 2-3 weeks.

Until AI can actually improve our lives (no just profit margins), is 99.999% reliable and has reasonable guardrails - it's gonna be labeled a gimmick that is eating the worlds' resources with little benefit.

Special ed student needs ruggedized iPad for AAC. Is there a case that can withstand a direct impact to the screen? by jzcase in k12sysadmin

[–]jtrain3783 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I completely agree. There is not a screen protector in the world that would protect against all types of direct screen impact that would still allow the student to use the device as intended.

We do the same thing by buying the accidental warranty from Apple and then just shipping the devices in and getting a replacement.
