Digital Tablets Improve Grades

By Nicole Schouela

The Digital Tablet Project headed by Bern Mcleod aims to improve learning outcomes through the use of curriculum-programmed digital tablets. Last March the first 50 tablets, programmed with upper level science questions, were introduced in grade 6 & 7 classes at Stand Tall. The overall improvement in Science grades and excitement generated towards learning was very encouraging. We are now in the process of programming the math curriculum followed by English and Social Studies at a later date. Our Facebook Page is in the making and will be announced soon.
