Recent research shows that although students may not be scared of technology and may live in Facebook, they have increasingly naïve understandings of finding and evaluating information
White and Le Cornu suggest a better distinction might be Digital Visitors and Residents

Most of the time people only want access to the internet (including University intranet sites)
When accessing university systems we need a password challenge (and single sign on)
We already have perfectly good policies for • Acceptable Use• Virus Protection• Password Protection of devices
The problem is they are not enforceable
It’s a social thing!

Some of the Issues a University must decide
19
How we will support those devices?
What devices we will support?
Who will pay for software / apps required?
If the University supplies hardware, who own it? (whose AppleId etc?)
Which devices can access University systems (as opposed to internet/intranet)?
There will certainly be more discussion about this today.
Plenty of potential to alienate your users!
