Overview
Every teacher at Benowa SHS aims to integrate technology into their lessons.
The BYOD system allows students to consume information as well as produce information in a mobile form through:
- having instant access to resources and assessment for all classes
- some textbooks available in PDF format. This not only alleviates the need to carry heavy textbooks in their school bag, it provides on-demand access to these rich resources
- a wide range of classroom web tools as part of the ever-evolving digital platform for learning
- 24/7 access to technology for students
- access to teacher resources through the use of MS OneNote and Compass
Why BYOD? - Bring/Buy Your Own Device
The school has a clear objective to have every student with BYOD access for school. Although having a BYOD laptop is not mandatory, there may be an impact on a student's accessibility to certain resources, e.g. online textbooks for subjects where no hard copy textbooks are available.
