Google Reference School
ISA is a recognized Google Reference School, highlighting our innovative use of Google Workspace and Chrome OS. These tools support collaboration and communication across all grade levels. From Grade 3 to Grade 8, students use Chromebooks provided by the school, while high school students bring their own devices. Our classrooms feature Chrome OS-based interactive whiteboards, and teachers use Chromebooks with stylus input to create engaging lessons.
As a Google Reference School, we share best practices with other schools and help students develop essential digital skills for the future.
Digital Citizenship and Online Safety
We take digital citizenship seriously at ISA. From the earliest grades, students learn how to navigate the digital world safely and responsibly. Our curriculum covers managing digital footprints, understanding the impact of social media, and protecting personal information online. By high school, our students are well-versed in the principles of ethical technology use, making them responsible digital citizens.
Support and Training for Students and Staff
To ensure that our students and staff are confident in using technology, we provide ongoing training and support. Our dedicated technology team works closely with teachers and students, offering guidance, troubleshooting, and updates on the latest digital tools and trends.
Innovative Learning Projects
Technology at ISA is not just about using devices; it’s about transforming education.
We encourage cross-curricular projects that leverage technology in innovative ways. For example, students might use programming to bring a science project to life or employ digital design tools to create a presentation for a history class.
These projects help students apply their knowledge in real-world contexts, fostering critical thinking and creativity.
Parent and Community Involvement
We involve parents through platforms like Seesaw, offering transparency into their child’s learning and providing resources to support their engagement. Regular workshops also help parents understand how technology is used at ISA.
A Future-Forward Technology Vision
ISA’s technology vision is clear: to enable all students and staff to access new learning experiences, think flexibly, and express themselves confidently. By investing in cutting-edge tools and providing a supportive environment, we ensure that our students are well-prepared for the future.
