The Miami-Dade BYOD program probably needs to be revised. If it focuses on Microsoft or Apple like many BYOD programs, then an acknowledgement must take place that Google-Android-Chromebooks are a legitimate alternative to wasteful spending.
Parents can buy their kids three Chromebooks for the price of a Mac. Two for the price of a Windows PC. Or, if these parents have three kids, all of the students can own a device.
If you want Chromebooks to last longer than the Mac or PC options, add Cranium Chromebook Protection. Look for it on Amazon.
