VOTE ABI FOR BSL!! DONT WRITE IT, TYPE IT!! WHY DO WE NEED LAPTOPS - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

VOTE ABI FOR BSL!! DON’T WRITE IT, TYPE IT!!

WHY DO WE NEED LAPTOPS IN SCHOOL?? • WHEN SCHOOLS PROVIDE LAPTOPS FOR EVERY STUDENT TO CREATE THESE ONE-TO-ONE COMPUTING ENVIRONMENTS, THEY ALLOW STUDENTS AND THEIR TEACHERS TO TAKE FULL ADVANTAGE OF THE BENEFITS OF THE INTERNET AND TECHNOLOGY. SOME OF THE BENEFITS OF USING LAPTOPS IN THE CLASSROOM INCLUDE: ... IMPROVING STUDENTS' COMPUTER SKILLS.

• WHEN YOU ARE ON LAPTOPS YOU WILL NOT ALWAYS HAVE TO DO HOMEWORK OR HAVE TO CREATE POWER POINTS/DOCUMENTS, YOU WILL BE ABLE TO ACCESS EDUCATIONAL WEBSITES THAT WILL MAKE SURE YOU HAVE UNDERSTOOD THE TOPIC YOU HAVE BEEN COVERING AND ENHANCE YOUR KNOWLEDGE EVEN FURTHER.

What will I do?? I will work on YOUR behalf with the school to help get rid of all the little obstacles that cause problems e.g. helping to ensure they are all powered up, helping to make sure access is available when we need it. I want to make sure laptop availability is accessible for a 21 st century user – YOU AND ME!!

Finally, there's always a boring bit with every exciting thing right? We all have a collective responsibility to ensure that technology works for us in the way we want it to. This means we can’t abuse the privilege of using laptops in lessons; not going on websites we know we are not allowed to e.g. gaming sites, sport sites, makeup tutorials etc.
