Hi Anita,

Will you let us know when it's time to submit the formal proposal for the BOF sessions? I've got several districts interested in collaborating on the BOF Chromebook session.

This would be of interest for schools who are considering the Chromebook as well.

I've talked with several school districts that are interested in assisting with the BOF Chromebook session.

Oakland Unified is piloting them in three schools in Northern California.  I know their district tech coordinator would be interested in this BoF.

Here's a question for those of you who are using Chromebooks now -- What is your evaluation of the Management Software that Google provides with them? Is it well designed? Useful? Worth the ongoing subscription?

Hi Jennifer,

The management console for the Chromebook is continuing to improve. Google is working with our engineers on things that we would like to see in updates. We're hoping that they will come up with pricing that will be more affordable for schools and districts that are purchasing a large quantity of Chromebooks.
