Technology Element

Students use laptop and desktop computers to complete in-school projects and presentations. They use projectors to present their work, and flash drives to save it. Cell phones are not to be used during class, but they are allowed on campus along with iPods, MP3 players, students' personal laptop computers, and flash drives. 1 gig or higher flash drives (aka thumb drives, zip drives, USB drives, etc.) are highly encouraged for students to save work. Each student also holds a profile on the school's LAN "F" drive to save work on, and can access a public "S" drive for sharing files with other computer profiles. Internet is used by students on a multi-daily basis, though it has become less resourceful due to district restrictions.

Famous quotes containing the words technology and/or element:

    “Radio put technology into storytelling and made it sick. TV killed it. Then you were locked into somebody else’s sighting of that story. You no longer had the benefit of making that picture for yourself, using your imagination. Storytelling brings back that humanness that we have lost with TV. You talk to children and they don’t hear you. They are television addicts. Mamas bring them home from the hospital and drag them up in front of the set and the great stare-out begins.”
    —Jackie Torrence (b. 1944)

    “Beauty is composed of an eternal, invariable element whose quantity is extremely difficult to determine, and a relative element which might be, either by turns or all at once, period, fashion, moral, passion.”
    —Jean-Luc Godard (b. 1930)
