Android in a school
Return on Investment
In our organization, Android is mostly being used in the phones of our employees. Another place that we use it is on our Chromebooks. Chrome OS supports the use of the Google Play store, and so we are able to put Android apps on our Chromebooks for students to use. It makes it so we don't have to buy other iPads or android tablets for classroom use and to get the apps we want.
Pros
- Android allows you to customize a lot of things.
- Using Android SDK allows you to get apps not in the app store.
- It is very affordable.
Cons
- Can be tricky for some users if they've never used it before.
- Not very good support.
