High-tech tools paired with new approaches
DoD schools are committed to using technology in the support of
traditional classroom instruction, from creative writing to
the beauty and mysteries of science.
One example of the partnership between technology and traditional
academic subjects can be found at Stowers Elementary School
at Fort Benning,
Georgia. In one approach, the teacher introduces a sentence
with no adjectives and asks students to create more descriptive
sentences in order to convey a particular mood. After students
have entered their own sentences, the teacher presents individual
responses on a large computer monitor to teach the lesson. |
