Using digital technologies:
- Allows for learning to expand beyond the 4 walls of the classroom, both in the community and internationally.
- Students learn in relevant, real world 21st century contexts.
- Allows students and teachers to learn, create, share, and collaborate anywhere, at any time.
- Opens up a new world of resources for students, providing much more knowledge than any one teacher or school library could hope to.
- Increased communication between home and school.
- Fading of 9am to 3pm school day as devices and learning are taken home.
- Increased engagement from learners.
- Future ready students.
- Personalised instruction and learning.
All of these factors add up to more students being present to learn in the classroom and beyond – engaged, enjoying learning, and achieving better results.
