Technology and Computers
Computers, educational software and internet sites are considered valuable tools that broaden curriculum content and resources; that accommodate individual learning styles and levels; that assist with assessment of learning; that allow for tracking of student achievement; that allow for communication with others throughout the world; and that prepare students for life-long learning and today’s technologically oriented society. The use of these tools is encouraged to facilitate student attainment of learning expectations and to create a high level of technological literacy.
Each school, to the extent feasible, within the limits of available budget resources, is to obtain the hardware, software and network connectivity to make technological tools available for student use for educational purposes.
Each teacher is to attain sufficient computer literacy and knowledge of available curricular and instructional software to provide students the educational opportunities and advantages that these tools offer.
The internet and other on-line resources provided by the District are to be used to support the instructional program, to further student learning and in accordance with the District’s mission. Students are expected to use technology resources and network in a responsible, ethical and legal manner.
