Please also know that the AAL Help Desk will soon roll out the Maintenance Certificate program for teachers. This program will provide teachers with a concrete procedure for determining the maintenance status of a student netbook. Teachers will be able to request a Maintenance Certificate, and the Help Desk will send an email report after the inspection of a specific netbook. No more mysteries! You’ll be able to tell if the student is keeping his/her machine in working order simply by asking for a certificate.
Watch your email for this program to start. It should be a huge help for everyone.
