Objective:
Provide technology that facilitates interactivity in the classroom and enables students to learn in the way that best suits them
Approach:
The Diocese of Columbus has established a 1:1 technology program for high school students at Bishop Hartley and Bishop Watterson High Schools
Technology improvements:
• Wireless, mobile solution available 24 x 7
• Digital pen enables inputting contentthat a keyboard can’t produce (diagrams, scientific notations, mathematical equations, and more)
Educational benefits:
• Teachers use innovative, collaborative classroom tools and programs
• Tablet PCs facilitate individualized instruction
• Students concentrate on class content over delivery
“The tablet computer is a versatile tool for teaching and learning that can be used by individuals in ways that best suit their needs. We’ve been using HP Tablet PCs to deliver an excellent educational experience and excellent results.”
