  • All students will have opportunities to use computers at school for projects and assignments. There are COWS (computers on wheels; ie laptops), enough for each team. In addition, one class set of Chromebooks is assigned to every Social Studies classroom. BYOD (bring your own device) is becoming more common; and will be required in high school for the 15-16 school year. 
  • In school, productivity is very important. It refers to the tools that help you 'produce' work and projects. Some common productivity tools are word processing, spreadsheets and presentations.
  • Google Apps is now a district wide system for all students. Google Apps includes email accounts, as well as access to documents, spreadsheets and more! The web based tools allow for collaboration and convenience!

Parents

In 2015, Middle School students are generally quite capable in terms of  technology. They use devices of all kinds for many purposes, as we do. 

At Coleytown, Technology Integration provides students with support needed for assignments and projects, as well as to allow new experiences with classmates and technology. 

Students in all grades will build on existing skills, and use technologies that are innovative and academically supportive. Some activities will be independent, and others will involve various grouping arrangements.   

Please remind your children that the Acceptable Use Policy is always in effect at school. Computers are the property of our district and they should be used for educational purposes using common sense guidelines. Misuse and/or damage is not acceptable.
