I wrote the following list for parents at my school to let them know what their kids need to know to be ready for upper school. This list is in no particular order and is definitely based on my humble opinion.  (below is a sample… to get the full list see the URL)

4) Device basics. All students should be able to do the following tasks on their device of choice:

Turn power on and off;

adjust volume up/down and mute;

select an appropriate WiFi network;

log in to a school e-mail account;

plug in headphones;

open Web browser to access the Internet;

take a picture;

take a video;

switch between front- and rear-facing cameras;

bookmark a website and add a shortcut to the home screen;

take a screenshot; and

access photos and videos.
