Information and Communication Technology - 2004 |
|
|
| As part of the ongoing policy at
Brescia House to keep abreast of technology,
this year has seen the upgrade of the computer
room in the Resource Centre, the addition of a
new server and upgrading of the cabling network.
Older PCs have been placed elsewhere in the
school and all the senior primary classrooms now
have a PC in the classroom, as do many of the
High School subject classes. |
|
| In the Resource Centre the pupils
are privileged to be using state-of-the-art
technology. The technical specifications of the
PCs are Pentium 4s, with 256MB of RAM, 80GB hard
drives and 17 inch screens - they are very fast
and efficient. The principal and the
headmistresses are now working on notebooks and
we will be installing the first interactive
whiteboard into the classroom.
The Grade 11 and 12 pupils all wrote the
Knowledge Network diploma examination in the
second term with superb results. A complex
examination lasting four hours and covering
Excel, Word and PowerPoint software tested both
their I.C.T. and strategic thinking
skills. All these pupils leave school confident
in their ability to cope in an increasingly
complex technological society.
