[Counselors] Grant Question

[OSRHE EPAS PK-12 Counselor Discussion Board]

We have gone 1 to 1 with iPads and have two traveling carts of Macbooks in the JH/HS. As mentioned before, we basically have walking computer labs. Our teachers are in the process of creating/transferring their curriculum into iBooks or into iTunes U courses. We also used our iPads for End of Instruction exams last year (except with Eng II and III Writing).

> We received the OETT grant last school year for our MS/HS students. We purchased chromebooks and went 1 to 1 with them. Our students take the chromebooks home with them and are responsible for keeping up with them. The teachers love the students having the chromebooks with them so that they do not have to schedule the computer lab and students do not have an excuse for not finishing a paper. We do have a few students that don't have internet access at home and the teachers work with those students individually. We have had a few growing pains adjusting to all of the technology, but it has been a huge blessing for our little rural school! I have attached a document with Web 2.0 tools that our teachers use.
