One Student:One Device
Indooroopilly State School has identified the need for seamless technology enhanced learning to prepare students for an ever-evolving world. Rich technological experiences and integration will allow students to build their skills and digital literacy to prepare them for lifelong learning in the 21st century.
In 2023, Year 5 students commenced participation in the 1:1 program at Indooroopilly State School. In this program, families provide a device for the student to allow for seamless access to a device. An analysis of literature and relevant studies show this program will:
- Enhance accessibility to technology enhances 21st century digital literacy outcomes.
- Enhance the curriculum by providing additional ways for students to create, develop, extend, and share their understanding.
- Allow continuous and more frequent access to learning materials for more efficient learning that can happen anywhere and anytime
- Strengthen the relationship between home and school by providing parents an opportunity to access their child's learning, promoting more relevant, timely and quality conversations around what students are learning in class.
In 2024, this program will build on the successful implementation with the program rolling into Year 6. This means that both Year 5 and Year 6 cohorts will be learning in a 1:1 BYOD environment.
