Our students are needing a new direction for handling the huge data infusion into managing life after school. Our goals include integrating technology into all students’ curricula to increase understanding this new world. Students are expected to communicate electronically – both giving and getting feedback via electronic comments; to applying concepts and procedures to solve complex math problems via 2-way conversations with students in international settings; to learning the English language and exploring coding – the NEW language. Kids LOVE learning when they have independence to explore safely. Our current math curriculum includes 90 minutes a week of embedded problem solving using interactive sites. Our newly arrived friends are allowed to learn English using language software that advances them quickly to be somewhat comfortable in their new setting. Our school is focused on blending learning to include parents of all ethnicities and we use technology to help us translate what students need from home as well as what the curricula means at each grade level. All of our embedded programs are accessible from home – though a small percentage own computers. We encourage the families to use the local library as a good source for extended learning. We are seeing a large percentage of girls and non-English speaking students rising up in their confidence in Mathematics, coding and science as they become more adept with computers. This is equating to more opportunities as they grow older and move to secondary schools. The jobs of the future are all seeming to need a strong technology education from Modern Mechanics to use of Cad software in construction to facial imaging for our friends in the personal appearance field… Then there are those going to post-secondary higher education… no question everyone needs technology fluency. I am requesting for three Chromebooks to allow my student's to partake in the exploration process during learning.
