Bring Your Own Device
Secondary Students studying at CSCC are required to supply their own device for use at CSCC as part of the college’s Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) program.
Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) program.
A central aim of the college’s BYOD program is to support the use of BYODs, more specifically notebooks/laptops from Years 7-12. To assist acquiring these devices at a reasonable cost, the college provides the below link which summarises devices deemed appropriate as a BYOD as well as listing devices which would not be suitable.

Why do students need a device?
-
Students need to be able to electronically communicate, create content, interact with others and electronically submit work while studying at CSCC. Significant examples of the college’s use of digital tools include the use of Compass, email, Internet and other digital resources. Compass allows all students to see details of their course and electronically submit tasks, is used for online reporting and monitoring of every students’ progress, and allows for student and parent/carer access.

Where can I purchase a new device from?

Important note about theft and warranties
-
Creek Street Christian College does NOT provide insurance or warranty to cover theft or damage to student’s device. We recommend that you give consideration towards purchasing an extended warranty and insurance when purchasing a new laptop. Your family’s home and contents insurance may cover it; however, it would be best to check prior to purchase. Warranties and insurance assist with timely repairs and reduce the chance of your student being without a device for an extended period of time.

How do I access my FREE Microsoft Office application license?
-
The Microsoft Office application is made available to students whilst they are enrolled at Creek Street Christian College through the College’s licensing package. It can be installed on your student’s laptop via the ‘Get Office 365 for free’ section at the below link using your child’s college email address (i.e. first.lastname@creekstreet.vic.edu.au) and clicking on the ‘Get Office For Free’ button.
