How will technology be used to aid learning at the CALC?
Students will use the latest technology and software to find solutions to real-world problems that interest them. A student majoring in entrepreneurship might use the Center’s digital studio to produce a video to sell a new product. Another student might create an animated learning game, while another would focus on developing a prototype of a worldwide information network. The use of wireless technology throughout the school will allow for the creative and flexible use of space, and the CALC web portal will help create an online community of learners. Technology will be used to keep parents up-to-date on student progress, have teachers readily available to respond to student questions, involve business and industry experts in classroom activities, and enrich the curriculum with all of the resources of the worldwide web. Students will also use technology to build an electronic portfolio to document their accomplishments and skills for future employment purposes.
