Technology Integration

Students at Dater School will have the opportunity to integrate technology across all areas of study. The Information Technology Center houses a cart of Chromebooks. Students will be primarily utilizing G Suite for Education: email, docs, spreadsheets, slides and sites for their work throughout the year. G Suite for Education is a suite of tools that increases opportunities for students to think critically, communicate, collaborate, and create, all while supporting our learning objectives.

G Suite allows students to not only access their files from anywhere but also encourages sharing of files and collaborating with peers. Google Chrome will be our browser. In all areas of curriculum, students will be accessing teacher-led integration of technology using a variety of programs, websites, and apps.

Prior to accessing any of these programs, students will participate in a Digital Citizenship lesson followed by signing a Digital Citizenship pledge to assure they understand the responsibility of using technology. More Digital Citizenship instruction will continue throughout the school year.
