Technology at Green Woods Charter School


Each year at Green Woods Charter, we are fortunate enough to mold and shape our curriculum so it can address and evaluate current events, monitor and mull over changes within the world around us, and explore and embrace emerging trends in technology to enhance the learning experiences of our students.  In addition to our core curriculum, our teachers work to foster Digital Citizenship and 21st Century skills within their classrooms.

 

Green Woods Charter School has a 1:1 device program for all students. Our students in Kindergarten through 2nd grade each have an IPad. Our 3rd - 8th grade students each have a chromebook. Our 5th - 8th grade students travel home with these devices to ensure continued use for homework. Using these devices, students continue to develop and showcase their expertise, participating as advisors to each other, and sometimes showing their teachers a trick or two!  We provide our students with access to educational applications and tools that support mastery learning and enhance their digital competencies.  Using G Suite for Education, our students collaborate, peer edit, revise, and publish interactive digital projects that showcase everything that they are learning and passionate about.  These student-centered, technology-enriched practices are all meant to ensure that students who graduate from Green Woods Charter will be able to thrive in any industry or field they choose to pursue!
