Class overview
The Archdiocese of Philadelphia's Technology competencies aim to create engaged and empowered learners, utilizing technology as a tool for gathering, curating, and utilizing information, and producing learning products. These competencies are based on the ISTE National Standards and encourage the integration of technology with the curriculum. Students are encouraged to develop proficiency in higher order thinking skills and project-based learning, creativity and innovation, and collaboration and communication. Teachers are encouraged to use these competencies as a scaffolding device for building technology skills and affording opportunities for independent application and cooperative use of digital proficiencies. They should also be familiar with aspects of digital citizenship, as the policy for technology use in the school communities is updated yearly. Technology is seen as a dynamic vehicle for learning and a bridge to connections with the local and global communities, with education being a life-long journey.

All assignments will be given in class, and you’ll have plenty of time to get them done. If you need to finish at home, it probably means class time wasn’t used as well as it could have been. Make sure to turn everything in through Google Classroom so you can stay on track!
About me
Welcome to Technology! I’m Mrs. Spellman, and I’m thrilled to be your teacher this year. This is my fourth year at St. Pius X, where I live here locally with my husband, son, and daughter. In my spare time, you’ll usually find me at the local softball fields with my daughter or at the karate studio with both kids. Our family loves living in DelCo, where we share our home with our dogs, three cats, and a turtle—you could say we live in a zoo! I enjoy taking my kids to their sports, playing video games, and reading in my free time. I can’t wait for an amazing year ahead!
