Wesite Hosting

Sorry for the confusion and multi-posts for the same item (no one had replied though, so I think I'm OK). I am researching to see what companies area districts are utilizing for their website hosting. We currently use Linewize (formerly Blackboard Connect, formerly Schoolwires). I am looking at possibly switching companies when our contract is up this summer.

"The last place it used was iCare Electronics out of Fargo about 2-3 years ago.  Cost was dependent on model usually $150-$250.  Turn around, a week or less from time we sent out until returned."

Interactive Teacher Devices

I am wondering what area districts are using for teacher classroom interactive devices. We are still using the old dinosaur SMART Board 600 series in our classrooms which I believe were put into service in 2011. We are looking at replacing these units, and I'm wondering if you are willing to share your pros and cons to the devices your teaching staff is currently using. Thank you in advance for replying!ValerieSee More

"Val, We got started last spring with Mosyle for managing our iPads in the ABE program.  Mosyle's support and hand holding in getting us started was excellent. Price is reasonable. We like the product for what we are doing. Alice"
