Teacher Laptop Pilot Continues |
|
On April 22, 2009, many of the K-3 teachers in the DDSB Laptop Pilot Project gathered together to embrace new tools that assist in educating students in classrooms. Along with data projectors, wireless Internet connectivity and speakers, these select teachers are being equiped to provide their students with increased opportunities for learning and engagement.
Creating opportunities for increased student learning, teachers left the session feeling enthused and excited at the new tools they have at their fingertips. Educators are expected to return to the Education Centre later this month for increased training and support.
