The problem with Managed Apple IDs and iTunes U
Fraser Speirs posted another great article about using Apple IDs and Managed Apple IDs when preparing courses for students.
I’m wondering why teachers are being asked to use their personal iPads and IDs for work, which is what it sounds like.
and nothing was said about whether they examined the recent changes to iOS for schools with the shared devices and if that could get around the issues

It’s not that they are using personal Apple ID’s – it’s that anyone before this year didn’t have a Managed Apple ID, including teachers. They’ve spent years making and conducting courses using “standard” Apple ID’s – and purchasing apps, etc. Now, Apple isn’t allowing students with the new managed ID’s to join the courses their peers joined a year before. Asking a teacher to switch to a new ID means all their purchases go poof, not to mention having to add the second ID to their course as a co-teacher, using up one of the 5 co-teacher spots in their class. A complete mess, Apple.
