Technology

 

 

Technology pervades all levels of education at MGGS. From our early learners through to VCE, technology is not so much about productivity as it is about learning, innovation, creativity and collaboration.

 

Both teachers and students are continually exploring the possible applications of technology in the learning process. This continual exploration of the possible uses of technology in education is ideally suited to the learning environment of our School.

 

For teachers technology provides an engaging and effective way to support learning.

 

Digital photography and recording enables a high level of communication in our Early Learning Centre along with the password protected Parents Lounge located on the School website.

 

All Junior School classrooms are equipped with Interactive Whiteboards and these are another medium through which students can learn, construct and exhibit material.

 

From Year 5 the notebook program provides students with the opportunity to navigate, construct and publish and to collaborate with others on a worldwide basis  With specialist software the technology is able to provide problem solving opportunities, create and display artwork and animations, facilitate multimedia presentations and musical compositions and enable students to engage in the design process while increasing their digital fluency.

 

Our ICT department provides mentoring and technical support for staff to encourage innovation in the delivery of curriculum. Repair and maintenance service for student notebooks ensures minimum disruption for students.  Go to a more detailed explanation of our notebook program.
