How is technology integrated into the academic curriculum?
Technology is used in the classroom as a teaching tool; for example in Astronomy, a computer program is used in class to simulate some of the phenomena of the sky otherwise not available during the short duration of the Astronomy block. This software allows setting the point of view of the observer everywhere on the Earth or in the solar system, and it also allows one to speed up the simulations of those astronomical phenomena that otherwise would take years of observations to investigate. Students use the Internet as a research tool and learn how to share their work with others via the Internet as part of their history and English classes. Other uses of technology are integrated into a variety of classes. For example, in a precalculus class, students use Excel for data analysis. In digital arts video classes students use editing software as part of their film projects. During work on Junior Projects, students learn to use presentation software, such as PowerPoint.
