Computer+Technology+Curriculum+2010-2011


 * Changes to the Middle School Computer Technology program for grade 6, 7, & 8 school calendar year 2010-2011.

In May, Dr. Lynch, principal, requested changes to H.M.S. programs summarized in 3 sentences. The following was submitted by Ms. Burzyk:

Ms. Janet Burzyk, Computer Technology middle school teacher, plans to increase the number of Web 2.0 tools taught in all grade levels in the Computer Technology program. Some examples: students in grade 6 collaborate with another school via e-pals; students in grade 7 complete a geography project posted in Google Earth [rather than in Dreamweaver software]; the 8th grade computer technology course will take place online posted in Moodle software. These changes will allow students to continue to develop their creativity while collaborating with their peers. **
