Each section builds on the other as skills and computer knowledge progress. These courses are designed to provide a firm foundation in technology that will be used throughout the student's educational and professional career.
All instruction is based on a hands-on approach to computer usage.
In the more advanced classes, the focus is on problem solving and understanding the function of computers in society. Independent and cooperative learning are both stressed. SAIS is in the process of upgrading the school's technology. This coming summer, a fiber optic backbone and hubs will be installed in the school for the connection of lines to every classroom. The computer labs will be equipped with new PC computers.
