Use of technology in the classroom |
MILE School is developing digital teaching as an integral part of course studies. MILE School offers technology as a learning tool from the first years of school, as a support to students developing a critical appreciation of what they learn. Indeed, one of digital teaching’s aims is to become acquainted with those tools that allow for a constructive and informed use of technology.
The iPad is the main tool of the digital teaching program since it is a mobile device that offers a wealth of educational tools. Thanks to its simplicity, the iPad allows students to focus their attention on content and its multimedia presentation and not on the device’s technical complexity as would be the case if they used other products on the market. |
