Technology News
Here at Christ the King we are always working to bring effective technology tools to teachers and students. One of our Student Learning Expectations address the need for students to become effective communicators, and in today's world they also need to be effective collaborators. This year we added a mobile lab to increase computer time and availability to all classes. Today we are excited to announce that Christ the King Catholic School faculty, staff, and students have access to our new account with Google Apps for Education. Google Apps Education Edition is a suite of communication & collaboration applications designed for schools. We are hoping that the use of these tools will greatly enhance the student's ability to work from many locations, using a varity of tools (laptop, desktop, Mac, PC, and even cell phones!). The school maintains administrative control, so your child's accounts are safe and can be managed by the tech coordinator or teacher. We will be setting up accounts for Grades 6-8 this week! Talk to your child as the year progressess and we use these accounts more and more to share, communicate and collaborate!
New Laptops
The latest hardware addition is the new moble lab. This year teachers will be able to schedule the use of 20 new MacBooks for their classrooms. I will be training four students from each class to be special techs to assist in managing the laptops in the classroom.
Classroom Wiki's and Blogs are ready for all classrooms and subject areas. Go to the Classrooms page to find the links. To protect the identity of students, the pages will be password protected. Log in using your student id and password.
Students and parents are encouraged to use the CCCOE portal ED1Stop as the "one stop" for research and media tools to build and reinforce skills. This year you will find Digital Math, a homework helper, and a greatly improved Discovery education.
Tutorials for almost any application can be found at Atomic Learning. Ask students for their login and password information.
Our theme for this year is HOPE. I sincerely hope each of you has a fabulous 2009-2010 school year.
