Turn off tablet when user log out from my application

Question

I am developing a tablet application for school and my requirement is to turn off my tablet, when user clicks on log out button provided in my application. This because I don't want to give any other access to users.

Can anybody tell me, is it possible? If yes, then how can I do this?

Thanks in advance..

Actually.. the answer for this question is no if you are developing an ordinary sdk application.

Answer from Commonsware:

 Only applications signed with the system firmware signing key can do this.

Perhaps, if you have root privileges you can do this too. – Dheeraj Bhaskar Dec 24 '13 at 09:59
