The Nevada Middle School students and teachers had been waiting patiently for the 1:1 Chromebooks to arrive. Finally, the day arrived for rollout and a boot camp on how to use their new devices. The students have now been using their Chromebooks for a little over a week and are enjoying the benefits of doing work online!
There have been a few issues with passwords and some network security from home, but for the most part things are smooth sailing with students and teachers. As we move forward, students and teachers will be working on collaborating, connecting to the outside world, thinking critically and creating on these devices. We are working on moving beyond information that students can Google, but rather focusing on students being the creators of their own learning and connecting to the outside world.
We know this will be a year of learning for both the students and teachers but we are excited to get started in this journey at the Nevada Middle School.
