philosophy

Today's children are growing up in a world increasingly dominated by Technology and the media. Ambrit's ICT philosophy aims to empower students and enable them to become competent and responsible users of Technology in all its applications. To this end, ICT at Ambrit is treated as a means of achieving a desired result rather than as a subject whose skills are taught in isolation. Therefore, Technology lessons are based upon a curriculum subject area, the lessons being the result of close collaboration between the class or subject teacher and the ICT team.
The technology curriculum endeavors to empower students with the necessary skills, knowledge and understanding of ICT in a modern world through integrated use of up to date, industry standard programs and teaching methods.
To enhance the way students learn and interact with technology, teachers use technological tools (laptops, iPads, flipcams, etc.) in the classroom, alongside other teaching resources. The school also has SMART interactive whiteboards in every classroom. These boards add a dynamic, interactive dimension to teaching and learning, allowing students to present work to their peers, and the teacher to give interactive lessons. Each board also doubles up as an audio-visual station, enabling teachers to show films, documentaries and listen to music.
