The Goldilocks approach to finding a technology funding model that actually works: Ep 17
Show Notes Chapter Markers

In this week's OutClassed Podcast, Mike and Blake are joined by Matt Robinson to discuss how to fund your technology and infrastructure plans.

Matt has tried just about every funding model available and despite being in a low socio-economic area has now got a thriving BYOD program where over 95% of students purchase a device...and not one of those nasty cheapest possible price point devices!

This week we dive deep into...

* How Matt's school have approached technology spending and what is working
* How to engage community to own your BYOD (or school purchased) program
* Best practice for budgeting for technology across the school

And more!
