I'm not sure how you guys have been keeping up with whose iPad is assigned to who.
This is something I implemented and it works great.
It does require you utilize the Username assignment aspect of Casper.
- Create a new Config Profile called "Assignment Web Clip"
- For the label type $FULLNAME
- For the URL I made it go to a webpage I set up explaining the purpose of the Web Clip (If you are able, you could link it to a SIS profile of the student or something by utilizing a token in the URL)
- I set the icon to be something like this:
- Make it not removable
Then save that and go to "Smart Groups"
- Create a new group called "Assigned iPads"
- The criteria will be any iPad that have a value for username so "If Username Not Equal to Blank"
Save that and go back to your Configuration Profile and make the scope for the Assigned iPads group.
Now whenever you assign an iPad to a student, this Web Clip will download and the title will be the student's name. This way when you are working on several iPads you can instantly know whose iPad belongs to who.
If you have any alternatives to this, let me know.
