Interview with Holland Christian Schools - Apple's 1 to 1 Learning Initiative
This week we talk with Glenn Vos and Tim Kamps from Holland Christian Schools. The topic of our show today is Apple's 1 to 1 Learning Initiative, a program that the school has been involved in for the past four years.
"If we are going to really impact teaching and learning, putting laptop computer in the hands of students 24-7, is really the key." Said Glenn Vos, Superintendent, "We have really looked at how students learn today, what it might take in terms of tools, and as we considered lots of possibilities looking out into the 21st century, the Apple Initiative just jumped out to us to say, this is probably the best way that we can do this."
Tim Kamps, Technology Director for Holland Christian and MACUL's President-Elect advised. "Every student 6th through 12th grade has a laptop, an Apple laptop that they use all throughout the school year. They use it at school; they take it home. All the teachers also have laptops. We try to breed a culture of anywhere anytime learning."
We hope you enjoy the show.
