the Adoption of Office 365

THE ADOPTION OF MICROSOFT OFFICE 365

As you may know, Microsoft offers schools free licences for Office 365 Education. This allows schools to use Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote; collaborate using Microsoft Teams; and use other tools. With this service, educators can work together effectively and support student learning, optimize costs, and improve document digitization. What is great about this is that it does not commit schools to the long-term use of the service. However, purchasing software, applications, and licences is just the first step. For the technology to become a part of the day-to-day work at your school, an adoption process must follow.

WHY CONDUCT AN ADOPTION CAMPAIGN AT YOUR SCHOOL? 

You will:

  • get a secure technology for your entire school (secure email, data, and communication between teachers)
  • improve the information technology competences of your teaching staff
  • be able to share documents and data between the school management, educators, and students
  • be able to co-create and simultaneously edit documents with others
  • learn how to securely and effectively communicate with parents and discover the possibilities of connecting to registration systems

You will:

  • learn about new modern teacher–student communication methods which allow you to make your lessons more attractive
  • save costs
  • simplify your network management and make the installation of school computers easier
  • learn about modern teaching methods

THE MICROSOFT OFFICE 365 ADOPTION PROCESS

The adoption of Microsoft Office 365 Education offers much more than just digital teacher–student–parent communication. Educators will become more effective in what they do, and you will discover creative teaching methods that are able to get children interested in a topic without realizing that they are being taught. What does the six-month cycle of working with selected teachers look like?
