Proposal -Brigitte

 

Goal #1 Make effective use of computer hardware and software throughout the school.

 

  1. We need to make the best possible use of computer hardware

and software we already have.

Inventory of hardware (still in process)

Inventory of software (still in process)

 

  1. Figure out how to maximize the uses of what already have

before buying new equipment. How will teachers use the

hardware and software?

Survey of teachers’ uses of computer and technology (still in

process)

Setup and spatial organization of hardware and software for

maximize its uses. (not started yet)

 

Needs:

We need some work stations were many students can work on the same project and where the teacher can also teach some new skills to a bigger group. (Ideal: classroom work, small group work and individual work

 

To do this we would need for server a powerful machine where:

 

1)resources school-wide-software (site licence) can be saved on the server’s hard drive and can be access from the classroom and/or work stations by Ethernet and/or Apple talk (?)

2)students have storage space so can store and access data on the server from the classroom, work station (not stand alone) or library. (So it means they can access their work or email, or Internet) from any computer in the school.)

3)we need to access the Internet on each machine.

4)we need access to email on each machine.

5)we need to access software or CDs from any computers.

 

The LCD panel (or the other (?)) could be handy here in teaching the whole group.
