Mr. Hubbard's 2nd period class, Mar. 12, 2002
When you're trying to get the most current information
regarding human body systems and health issues, it's great to be able
to tap into the internet.
|
Here Mr. Rogers (Mr. Hubbard's Student Teacher) checks out a
website students located as a possible resource for their report.
|
Students often help each other out with tips and encouragement as they
plan their report strategy.
|
One nice thing about using wireless laptops is doing
your research wherever you're most comfortable - even in the library
window seats!
|
Thanks to a grant, da Vinci received 16 iBook wireless
laptops, along with a wireless internet connection called a "COW"
- computer on wheels - which makes use very flexible.
|
It's helpful to have both the Student Teacher and Mr.
Hubbard available to answer questions and give encouragment.
|
We even have the start of a dual-platform computer system,
thanks to a community person's donation of this Windows based computer
(which Mr. Hubbard just connected to internet).
|
These students utilize the iMac computers in the library,
so nearly every student has their own computer to use. Do we need and
want more - oh yes!
