Computers in Education

                                                                                             

“When we talk about 21st century pedagogy, we have to consider many things—the objectives of education, the curriculum, how assessment strategies work, the kind of technology infrastructure involved, and how leadership and policy facilitate attaining education goals.”

Ø  Computers make the learning process a lot more simple and efficient, giving student’s access to tools and methods of communication unavailable offline. For example, students can check their grades or lesson plans online, and also communicate directly with their teachers via email or educational platforms such as Blackboard.

Ø  Teaching students how to use computers helps them prepare for any number of possible careers, and classes based on computer education can get even more specific.

Ø   Education has benefited from the inclusion of technology and computers by making it easier for students to keep up while helping teachers by improving the way lessons can be planned and taught.

Ø  At NewAge, we believe students who use computers learn to use word processors for work, and subsequently they learn computer jargon and strengthen grammatical skills.

Ø  Students can also look up lessons on websites or through email rather than lugging heavy textbooks with them every day.

Ø  NewAge World School facilities impact learning in profound ways.

Ø  To substantiate theoretical knowledge and also for the academic betterment of our students NewAge has well designed computer lab with one on one access.

Ø  They are advanced with multimedia, 17″ LCD monitors that are easier on eyes which generate less heat and consume less power thereby keeping the atmosphere comfortable for children.

Ø  It is also associated with a smart system which provides an interactive way of teaching the software and the learning becomes easier in children. 

Ø  Our aim is to make students comfortable and at ease in using technology.

Ø  Unlike classroom pods or clusters in the library, most computer labs have enough machines for each student.

Ø  Computer labs that have a teacher and are not just a room of computers provide students access to specialized computer literacy education.
