Utilizing open-access labs to teach core curriculum using computers, scanners, digital cameras, white boards, and projector systems, has turned technology into a true learning tool. I like to see how motivated the students get. This is why the proper time and effort will be devoted to developing the human aspect of a technology program, as well as the hardware and software. The school building has literally become a living technological ecology. Teachers no longer avoid using the computers but often beg for additional lab time.
Teachers also have computers in their classrooms available for students to use at any time.
A few of the major applications taught are Microsoft Word, Access, PowerPoint and Excel, Inspiration, and HyperStudio. Students also become proficient at using the Internet and downloading information from the Internet to use in presentations and projects. Every classroom has a color TV installed that can display the teacher's computer monitor to teach lessons or display a live video feed from the main office. Teachers also do their entire lesson plans and grade book on the computer. Bennett has emphasized using technology to effectively teach student and effectively handle time management activities.
