“The more powerful technology becomes, the more indispensable good teachers are.” Michael Fullan The focus of the 1:1 iPad initiative at Collège Champittet is to provide tools and resources to the 21st Century Learner. Excellence in education requires that technology is

seamlessly integrated throughout the educational programme. Increasing access to technology is essential for that future, and one of the learning tools of these twenty-first century students is the iPad. The individual use of iPads is a way to empower students to maximize their full potential and to prepare them for university and the workplace. Learning results from the continuous

among
students,
educators, parents and the extended community. Technology immersion does not diminish the vital role of the teacher. To the contrary, it transforms the teacher from a director of learning to a facilitator of learning. Effective teaching and learning with iPads integrates technology into the curriculum anytime, anyplace.

Digital Citizenship ““Children and young people need to be empowered to keep themselves safe. At a public swimming pool we have gates, lifeguards and shallow ends, but we also teach children how to swim.” - Tanya Byron, Children and New Technology
With the adoption of a 1:1 initiative in schools there is an increased need to talk about responsible use of technology. Digital Citizenship is a concept which helps teachers, technology leaders and parents to understand what students and technology users should know in order to use technology appropriately. It is the responsibility of all members of the school community. Digital Citizenship is more than just a teaching tool; it is a way to prepare students for a society immersed in technology. Digital Citizenship is a framework representing the accepted standards of appropriate, responsible technology use. Too often we see students as well as adults misusing and abusing technology, but we are not sure what to do. The issue is more than just what the users do not know, but what is considered appropriate technology usage. The Digital Citizenship programme at Collège Champittet focuses on the nine elements of being a responsible digital citizen. A brief description of these can be found below: Digital Access: Full electronic participation in society. Can all users participate in a digital society at acceptable levels if they choose? Digital Commerce: Electronic buying and selling of goods. Do users have the knowledge and protection to buy and sell in a digital world? Digital Communication: Electronic exchange of information. Is there an understanding of the digital communication methods and when they are appropriate? Digital Literacy: The capability to use digital technology and to know when and how to use it. Have users taken the time to learn about digital technologies? Do they share that knowledge with others? Digital Etiquette: The standards of conduct expected by other digital technology users. Do users consider others when using digital technologies? Digital Law: The legal rights and restrictions governing technology use. Are users aware of laws (rules, policies) that govern the use of digital technologies? Digital Rights and Responsibilities: The privileges and freedoms extended to all digital technology users and the behavioural expectations that come with them. Are users ready to protect the rights of others to defend their own digital rights? Digital Health and Wellness: The elements of physical and psychological well-being related to digital technology use. Do users consider the risks (both physical and psychological) when using digital technologies? Digital Security: The precautions that all technology users must take to guarantee their personal safety and the security of their networks. Do users take the time to protect their information while creating precautions to protect others’ data as well?
