1:1 Technology in Classrooms
Thursday, June 20, 2019
We are proud to announce that Desert Trails has implemented a 1-1 technology for all of our K-6 classes. This means that all students have access to technology that enhances their learning in the classroom.
Why 1:1 Is Important:
Study after study has proven the benefits of a 1:1 technology approach, even at the elementary school level.
- Elementary students in 1:1 environments are frequently more motivated to learn than students in traditional classroom environments.
- Questions and assignments can be tailored to each student depending on his or her readiness and capabilities.
- Writing assignments can be turned into blogs and presentations that can be shared with the class or even published online.
- Portable devices can incorporate graphic and video elements that make learning more fun.
- Bringing devices home extends the learning environment beyond the school day.
- Students get a head start on becoming comfortable and experienced with technology.
