Technology

Students today are better than ever at using technology. Students of today's generation are often considered digital learners. This means they process information differently than those that have come before them. Students are better able to handle multiple tasks at once, create projects, and work together using technology.

In school students are exposed to a variety of technology. They are taught to use desktop computers, laptops, smart boards, and much more. Many students are better able to access information through these mediums than paper and pencil alone. There are an abundance of educational websites that can help you and your child further increase their love of learning. A link will be provided to some of these sights on the home page.

As the increased need for an understanding of technology continues students must learn and adapt to an ever changing environment. The government has created a new initiative to help students increase their knowledge and competency with computer and technology related skills.
