I forgot to say that we also have access to digital cameras and there is a smart board in the computer lab. In addition, the school is wireless and there are desktop computers in the library and around the second floor hallway. Elisa
Elisa Waingort Grade 2 Spanish Bilingual Dalhousie Elementary Calgary, Canada Our building has all different kinds of use. We are Reading First and that has helped to put computers in the classroom. The use of the computers depends on the teacher and the comfort zone. We have 1 district person, who is wonderful but limited to what she can do in a day. She takes care of the server, computers, hardware,etc. which leaves little time to teach. We have Promethean boards that travel and one room with a mounted board. Few teachers use it - lack of time to make lessons and inexperience too - which is a problem. Next year we will add ten boards mounted in rooms (YEAH - I get one), so people will have to learn it. Our district is setting new goals in technology. In addition, we have a computer lab where we go for 40 minutes once a week. I use technology all the time - there are so many ways to use it in reading.
