Just as the biro and ruler are a key part of any students basic stationery set today no self-respecting student goes to school without a USB Memory stick in their bag and typically several. In fact many schools, colleges and universities mandate the use of memory sticks and list them on the “essential kit list” for parents.
The rise of the humble USB memory stick to near global domination of the personal data storage market is with good reason too. Memory sticks are lightweight, portable, inexpensive, easy to use and yet extremely powerful. USB Memory sticks enable students and teachers to save and transport homework, coursework, reference papers, video files, etc. quickly and efficiently.
Whilst much of a students work does still eventually get printed the use of a memory stick to save work electronically has nevertheless reduced dramatically the amount of paper printed and carried by pupils and teachers alike.
Universities have also realised the USB Memory sticks can be used to recruit new students. Memory sticks printed with the Universities logo and preloaded with the university prospectus have become one of the “hot” ideas of 2009. Not only do these memory sticks portray the university as an innovative, forward thinking institution but by loading the stick with video tours, and other supplementary information they reduce the need to print paper flyers, brochures, advice sheets etc. Students can now be supplied with everything they need to know about the school/university on one small memory stick!
Commercially savvy bursars and administrators have also started to order memory sticks with the school crest/logo on and to resell these to the students to generate an additional revenue stream. Combining branded USB memory sticks with the traditional “school portrait” preloaded onto the disk is another of the more innovative directions that some schools are taking. We watch with interest to see what other ideas the schools come up with.
