For Schools and Districts

Happy and productive teachers and students will always result in an enhanced learning experience for students, more learning and better grades. We strongly believe that the EduTone will go a long way to help achieve this in any school district, large or small.

Not only that, but EduTone will also reduce the costs of supporting students and teachers as well as the costs of providing them with the applications, tools and content they need  for teaching and learning.

For teachers and students, EduTone provides an easy and quick way to access all applications, tools and content they need for teaching and learning.  EduTone makes it easy because they only have to remember one names and password to access all of their teaching and learning tools. EduTone makes it quick because all applications are just a single click away. They are all available from one “widget” we call the passport. What’s more, access is no longer restricted to the school.  Access is available from anywhere where they can access the Internet.

The Passport is configured differently for different students and even different teachers.  Depending on the role of the teacher (executive, principal, elementary, middle or high school) and the grade of the student (K-12), the passport will only display the applications, tools and content that is relevant to them. 

For the senior educators within the school and district, EduTone provides teachers with membership into the EduTone Community where they can collaborate with other teachers around the world to share lesson plans and other teaching and learning materials and participate in professional discussions.

For the IT Department, perhaps you have minimized the number of applications you want teachers and students to access because of the support nightmare. Creating and distributing accounts in each application, updating these accounts at the end of each year because of student and teacher movement, dealing with an increasing number of calls to set and reset passwords. It’s no wonder the IT Department’s budget is never enough and teachers and students are forever complaining about the lack of personal service they feel they are entitled to have.

EduTone will bring unheard of efficiencies to the IT Department’s ability to support teachers and students.  Using existing systems such as the SIS, the HR and The LDAP, the EduTone Xchange taps into already existing and well maintained data together with policies that determine who accesses what, to create and manage the accounts for teachers and students in the applications, tools and content that they should access.  The Xchange also create a Single Sign On account or will use their existing network accounts for teachers and students so that they can access all these applications, tools and content with one set of credentials.

For the district or school, as an organization, the efficiencies and savings that the EduTone Xchange bring will allow you to spend more of your budget to purchase more content, more applications and more tools that are needed by your teachers and students without the fear of the support implications.
