Learning with Technology

Blended learning will be a regular feature of schooling experience. It is broader than just a mix of online and offline learning. It requires our teachers to design lessons with synchronous, asynchronous, on-screen, off-screen activities; and using the affordances of technologies to create different learning experiences for our students to learn, to monitor their learning, to provide them timely feedback and to assess their learning.

We want to empower and engage our learners to learn in and outside of classroom and to enhance student-student/student-teacher/student-content interactions:

• Empower our students to use software and devices productively to learn, for work and for daily living.

• Empower our students to learn anytime and anywhere, and at their own pace.

• Engage and empower our students to learn collaboratively and independently (self-directedness) through the use of technology.

• Engage our students to learn through the use of digital learning tools to enhance learning experiences.

Our structured ICT programmes and CCE programmes aim to develop our digital learners to be innovative, responsible and discerning users of technologies.
