Chapter 2 Deployment models 9
•
A K-8 school may deploy both an institution-owned one-to-one model for fth through eighth
grades, and a shared use model for kindergarten through fourth grades.
•
In higher education it is common to see the student-owned model at the campus or
multi-campus levels.
Exploring these models in more detail will help you identify the best deployment model for your
unique environment.
Institution-owned one-to-one
An institution-owned one-to-one deployment model provides the greatest opportunity for iOS
devices to positively impact the learning process.
In a typical institution-owned one-to-one deployment, your institution purchases iOS devices for
all eligible students and instructors. This could be for a particular grade level, a department, or an
entire school district, college, or university.
In this model, each user is assigned an iOS device that’s congured and managed by your
institution. A mobile device management (MDM) solution will simplify and automate this
process. If the iOS devices are purchased directly from Apple or a participating Apple Authorized
Reseller or carrier, your institution can use the Device Enrollment Program (DEP) to automate
enrollment in MDM, so iOS devices can be handed to users directly.
Once iOS devices are distributed, users go through a streamlined Setup Assistant, are
automatically enrolled in MDM, and can further personalize their iOS device or download their
own content. Users may also receive an invitation to download specic educational content,
such as apps and books purchased through the Volume Purchase Program (VPP), or iTunes U
courses. If students are under the age of 13, your institution can initiate the creation of an Apple
ID on their behalf using the Apple ID for Students program, so apps and books can be delivered
to them. Your institution can deliver or update these resources over the air anytime during the
school year, and with Caching Server, most of these downloads can come from the institution’s
local network. If iOS devices are supervised, apps are installed automatically.
