That's in addition to the fact that every teacher has one or two computers in his or her classroom. The job of helping individual students this year will be the most doable it's ever been in our school. The East Wake High team pours over their plans. In English class, computers are used in writing instruction for Internet research and word processing. In the music department, music composition and theory are taught on computers using software that allows students to create music even if they can't play an instrument.
Technology plays a role in the school's printing, graphics, and computer programming courses.
Every vocational program at East Wake is technology driven. East Wake has built a core of teachers with technological savvy, providing tools that make a teacher's work more manageable. The school staff communicates by e-mail and electronic bulletin board, which replaced a daily paper bulletin. Software for recording student grades has made it easier to provide interim reports. It is how we do business every day.
