| Item Title: | Approval to purchase iPad keyboards and adapters for Smarter Balanced Testing |
| Agenda Title: | Approval to purchase iPad adapters and keyboards for Smarter Balanced Testing |
| Background: | The use of physical keyboards is a requirement of Smarter Balanced. School sites have iPads to use for testing but are in need keyboards.
Adapters are needed for the iPads because of Apple's recent move from a 30 pin connector to a Lightening connector. District sites have a mix of new iPads with Lightening connectors and older iPads with 30 pin connectors. The adapters will ensure that the keyboards can be used with any of our iPads. |
