iLearn@Ascot: Empowering Future-focused learning
We are passionate about creating digitally literate students who have the right tools to achieve excellence through engagement and creativity in their learning.
We will do that by…
- Inviting 1:1 BYOD iPad (iLearn) resourcing to enable deeper access to the curriculum and more timely completion of learning tasks.
- Providing Equity iPads (as needed) to ensure every student has access.
- Creating innovative tasks with real-world, authentic links that challenge students to research, record and create using digital tools to demonstrate their learning.
- Using iPads when they are the right tool for the learning and task.
- Provide flexibility in how students respond to tasks by educating them in the use of a variety of powerful educational apps and digital pedagogies – show what they know in meaningful ways.
- Explicitly teaching Cyber Safety to foster positive relationships between our students and prepare them for their online future.
- Connecting with families to build positive device and online use in our students.
- Ensure balance in use of devices with playful learning and outdoor learning.
So that … our students become engaged and independent participants in their own learning, developing the qualities and skills to live in today's digital society.
