Seton Keough continues to innovate with the use of state-of-the-art technology throughout the school and departments, however the school has a Technology Plan that ensures safe and ethical practices.
Every student has a Seton Keough email account with Windows Live and is able to connect their e-mail, documents, PowerPoints and other school work to MS Office in school and at home.
Each Seton Keough teacher has an HP laptop to use in their classrooms to connect with interactive whiteboards, projectors, and other tools that will enhance classroom learning. Edline has been updated to a new interface so teachers may easily post grades, learning guides, messages, and discussions.
The Science Department has two new projection microscopes and three interactive projectors. Mrs. Montoya, the chemistry teacher, will be using the AverPen system that turns an ordinary projector into an interactive system. Eight student AverPens will certainly lead to an opportunity for the teacher and her students to engage in exciting new projects in chemistry. The Project Lead the Way engineering classes will have 24 laptop computers to use and the bio-medical classes have 20 desktops in their classrooms. All the computers are running on Windows 7.
The Foreign Language Department will be using iPods and iPads along with a special projector to enhance their French, Spanish, and Latin listening and speaking skills. The iPods have microphones in addition to the ear phones and students will e-mail their speaking lessons to their teachers. A portable charging station allows an app to be downloaded onto a laptop computer which then loads the app on each of the 30 iPods.
The library has Nook e-book readers for student and faculty use, which is very much a sign of where books and reading are headed.
