High schools

School tools for internal social networking and collaborative learning

IT is uppermost on High Schools’ strategic agenda right now, with the National Educational Technology Plan (NETP) driving the pace of change as schools race to keep their school learning technologies up-to-date and relevant. Issues include providing online access to learning platforms, making learning personalized to the user and expanding learners’ web technology skills. Tactical challenges also exist for larger schools with multiple sites, where keeping track of student movement between classes and their attendance and behavioral records can become an administrative burden.

Reaching out beyond the classroom

Webanywhere has developed an extensive range of web based learning solutions that are helping High Schools prioritize and address these ICT investment issues. Our powerful Moodle-based learning platforms, e-Portfolios and internally hosted social networking solutions are helping High Schools across the world to support teachers’ lesson planning and course management while driving forward encourage a learning culture outside of the classroom. Online centralized management information makes it simple to carry out student assessment and grading that can be shared with parents. Students improve their digital technology skills and can access online course revision materials, collaborative learning tools, secure and safe internal networking and self management.
