Technology
SISD is committed to embracing technology that supports our educational vision and makes learning more stimulating and interactive. Educational technology has aided in the development of new and updated educational materials and curricula, as well as in the acceleration of the teaching and learning processes. Education technology makes teaching more interactive, collaborative, and meaningful—and it can help students engage with their learning more effectively. Our school has committed to providing digital resources and learning opportunities for teachers and students to learn how to integrate technology into real-world experiences.
Innovation
Students develop strong learning skills, especially in critical thinking.
Our students are
"Thinkers"
Our students have the opportunity to become real-world content creators
not just consumers of content. Students gain experience and skills with modern tools that will help them thrive and contribute in an ever-changing, globally connected world. Learners investigate global issues through interactive media, connect with others through collaboration and share their ideas and projects through videos and virtual galleries.
Secondary students are welcome to use the Innovation Labs facilities outside of classroom hours at recess, lunch breaks and after hours to work on personal projects such as app development, product design, robotics development and more. Based on student feedback, our team selectively supports competition and events such as Hour of Code, Formula 1 in School Competition, First Lego League, 3D Design, KenKen Math competition and many other locally run learning activities.
