| Use of technology in the classroom |
The importance of technology in society today is unquestionable, which is why the digital world is one of SEK's priorities. The use of different technology in SEK serves as a transversal tool in bringing knowledge to students. SEK's own Wifi connection allows students and staff to access various educational sources, either via the Moodle platform or by visiting sites in the Digital Library, as recommended by teachers and librarian. The digital whiteboards are another important resource, which serve as motivational tools in the classroom, allowing teachers and students to explore different topics and themes in a more interactive and versatile way. With SEK's grand collection of Ipads available, students have internet access across the entire school grounds, as well a selection of different apps which both incorporate and supplement classroom texts. |
