What is a connected classroom?


Connectivity is the essential characteristic of a classroom in which students with an Information-Age Mindset will learn. Our students are looking for:

  • regular access to full multimedia workstations
  • tools and peripherals for creation of graphics, video, audio and interactive environments
  • workstations constantly connected to high speed local networks, intranets and the Internet
  • personal workspaces accessible from various locations
  • collaborative workspaces where groups of students meet to share resources, share information, collaborate and communicate with each other
  • access to the seemingly limitless online resources
  • strategies for finding the educationally sound and valuable resources.

Teachers need - ditto. All of the above, plus support in getting into an Information-Age Mindset.
