Tech Integration - iPads as part of learning at Rustenburg

This year we were excited to welcome our first group of Grade 8s who would use an iPad as part of their everyday learning at Rustenburg.

During the first term, under the watchful eyes of Mr Wihan Neethling and Ms Janine Myers, the Grade 8s were introduced to what the iPad has to offer and have been using it effectively across all lessons.

Students have produced some amazing work and it is wonderful to see them explore their creativity. The Apple Pencil, especially, opens up a whole new world of possibilities.

Teachers also meet regularly in small groups to undergo training on how to maximise the potential that the iPad has to offer. This ranges from the ability to create digital assignments to setting tasks that require collaboration without the need to be in the same location. Teachers also manage the iPads in the classroom and can direct student learning by focusing on relevant material when it is needed.

We are truly excited by what the future holds for learning at Rustenburg!
