Digital tools can create engaging and interactive learning experiences in a variety of ways. It allows for accessibility so all children can engage at some level. It facilitates differentiation. In our school we have moved towards improvements in our digital hardware. Students have access to chrome books during the week. These devices can be used collaboratively, with students engaged on group tasks. This improves their communication skills and has enhanced their skills in problem solving. These skills are critical to our students. We are a DEIS school so it is really important that our students get the opportunities to engage with technology so they are equipped with the skills they will need as they progress and into the future. Our school has a focus on problem solving in numeracy and digital technology provides many opportunities – for example with coding tasks for students to engage in computational learning. We share and present learning tasks which in turn helps with data collection and reporting on progress towards our SSE goals.
