There is an extensive body of literature available on Bring Your Own Device (BYOD). This review represents a reasonable and representative scan of the available literature. It should be noted that this reviewer was unable to locate any peer reviewed studies of BYOD in action, though the review does include published observations of the benefits and otherwise of BYOD programs. The literature can be divided into opinion pieces, discussions, school policies, reports, lessons learnt and guides to instituting BYOD programs.
Given that all NSW public secondary school teachers and students have Wi-Fi access to filtered internet through centrally managed wireless access points in every learning space and library and that primary schools can purchase a similar solution, this review does not consider problems of wireless access and provision of bandwidth to any great depth.
