[Year 12 IPM] usb memory sticks- digital portfolios

[Wayne Hewett]

We are experimenting with using memory sticks in our year 9 "living for learning" program next year. The porfolio program and the students data will be on the stick, and not our server. This will give portability to their portfolios and the program needed to run it. We know there are going to be issues with keeping the students and their memory stick together for the year, we will be encouraging them to back it up off site.

You probably have a software clash.  We had the same thing happening until
we removed the Ghost client from our student PCs.  

 

Cheers

can I ask for some details about how the usb drives are ruining computers?
might help the list come up with a solution. 

 

we also have restrictions on .exe files and run a program called Deep Freeze
whereby each PC reverts to a "frozen" image when it is restarted regardless
of what changes are made to it by student or teacher.

Hello all,

 

Our network manager has encountered a number of problems with student memory
sticks ruining computers. He wants to ban memory sticks. I was wondering if
any list members had any policy relevant to this issue.

 

Thanks
