About Us
The Learning Technology Department consists of a diverse team of field technicians, technology coordinators, software support specialists, teacher consultants, and administrators. We work in collaboration to provide equitable access to technology across all of our district's schools ultimately supporting and enhancing the learning opportunities for students.
A Shared Vision
As the Learning Technology Team for the Central Okanagan Public Schools, we believe in nurturing and growing a Digital Learning Culture in our district. A culture
-
that focuses on leveraging technology in meaningful ways to deepen student learning;
-
where students are growing an adaptive technological skill set that empowers them to critically think, collaborate and communicate powerful ideas;
-
where students shift from being consumers to creators;
-
where students are focusing on their own digital health and wellness by actively engaging in the development of the knowledge, skills, and dispositions needed to live well in a digital world.
BC’s Know-Do-Understand Curriculum Model, the Spirals of Inquiry, and the OECD Principles of Learning help guide our way as we prepare today’s students to thrive in a constantly evolving technological landscape. We believe that our strong Digital Learning Culture will empower us as educators to truly develop our students into Digital Age Learners.
