Preparing children for a digital future
يلتحق أطفال اليوم بالمدرسة الآن كمواطنين رقميين كاملين يعتنقون التكنولوجيا منذ سن مبكرة. It is unsurprising then that technology is playing an increasingly central role in the classroom – not just in ICT and Computing, ولكن في العديد من الموضوعات الأخرى أيضًا. من خلال التعلم الرقمي, the use of technology can provide many benefits in the classroom for children.
Hamilton has some of the best digital learning technology available in Doha. The school has a comprehensive network-driven series of smart TVs throughout the campus that are controlled from its media room, serving as a modern noticeboard system. Each classroom also has its own Smart Board, with iPads and tablets available for classroom use.
In the future, Hamilton will have a news/TV studio and green screen room, complete with cameras, where students will be able to develop their media skills by producing short films and news segments for THIS TV, يبث يوميا في جميع أنحاء المدرسة. Projects will come alive in the MakerSpace STEM Lab where students can use their creativity to showcase what they have learned.
Of course, we know how much children enjoy using technology, therefore it is important to note that, while technology is important and can help reinforce learning, so too is that children learn for themselves when technology is appropriate and necessary – it shouldn’t be all consuming. Hamilton will ensure that the right balance is achieved by providing children with ‘real-life’ practical opportunities to learn, so that they appreciate the value of not always being in the digital world – children are encouraged to be responsible digital citizens.
