The Waugh School District's educational vision of technology use in the 21st century is to develop active, independent, lifelong learners who are confident using technology for a variety of purposes in their everyday life. The information explosion demands that students develop skills necessary to be successful in the future. Students must learn to manage and communicate information effectively, interact with individuals beyond the bounds of school, and present to a global audience. Within the Waugh School District, students will learn to clarify their thinking by using higher order thinking, multiple perspectives, and strong communication skills. Through technology use, students will develop critical thinking, organize information effectively, work collaboratively on multidisciplinary projects, and successfully present personally constructed knowledge through a variety of technologies. Technology is an integral instructional tool that supports learning across the curriculum, making curriculum more accessible to many students and engaging them through student directed activities. Students and staff will recognize technology use as a vital tool and develop a high comfort level with its use, providing a solid platform to build upon for future needs. > View...
