For in-class and at-home learning, many K-12 schools are leveraging 1-to-1 iPad programs. For many more, a Mac computer lab is made available to offer access to educational materials. Labs are a cost-effective and efficient way to ensure students have access to a computer with the apps they need to be successful, saving students and parents the cost of purchasing computer hardware and software. Labs also ensure digital equity for students who would not otherwise be able to afford these luxuries.

- OK: Binding to Active Directory
- Better: Just-in-time account creation
- Best: Cloud-based authentication with Jamf Connect
