Technology

The Norwalk High School One-to-One project has been developed over several years focusing on a specific class and providing additional training for that instructor. The project involves using a tablet computer (iPad) which allows students and staff the opportunity to enter information with the conventional keyboard or with an active stylus that allows students to write or ink their work much like a piece of paper and a pencil. Because of this, physical materials such as pens, paper, and textbooks are no longer required.

The following classes use this program: English IV, AP English, Honors English III, English III, Honors English II, Anatomy and Physiology, AP American History, US Gov't & Economics, Senior Social Studies, AP Psychology, AP Government and Politics, Teen Leadership Corps., Spanish IV and V, AP Calculus, AP Computer, Precalculus, Trigonometry, Statistics, Honors Algebra II, Algebra II, Physics, Environmental Science, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and Principles of Engineering, OR any other Honors Class, Junior Class, or Senior Class NOT listed.
