Approach the General Office should you have any concern regarding the PLD procurement.
The teachers have gone through rounds of discussion before co-making a decision to choose iPad as our students' PLD.
Some important reasons are:
In our school, iPads have been the school's supplementary learning devices.
School iPads have been frequently drawn by teachers and used by students even before the announcement of the PLD Initiative.
Existing programmes using iPads with years of success include:
Digital Arts by Aesthetics, Craft and Technology Department
Geography / History Investigation Learning Trails by Humanities Department
Interactive Learning Trails by Math Department, Humanities Department (EBS) and MTL Department (CL)
Applied Learning Programme (ALP) - Forensic Science, monitored by Science Department
4. These were the considerations when deciding on the school PLD:
Current & future needs in T&L
Portability and battery life
Affordability
Maintenance & management
Compatibility to post-sec/workplace
Familiarity to the device
Most of our teachers chose iPad as the most appropriate and sustainable PLD for our Fuhuanites.
Our school is currently planning to integrate the use of iPads in Blended Learning and co-curricula.
