New Multimedia Room Opens

 

HHHS has identified "embedding technology into the curriculum" as a major focus for our 2015 strategic plan. Headlining this plan is the establishment of a multimedia centre. The Multimedia centre was developed over term 3&4 and officially opened on 1st December. The Multimedia room is a collaborative learning environment, featuring state of the art modular furniture and break-out group work areas. The Multimedia room is focused around 1:1 student/teacher devices in the form of Chromebooks. 30 Chromebooks were purchased for this facility and have already enabled the roll-out of "Google Apps for Education" throughout Year 11 & 12, with the intention to extend this roll-out to other year groups in 2015. The Multimedia room is also crucial in teacher professional learning. Weekly staff training sessions have occurred throughout term 4, with the goal of improving teacher technological skills and the abilities to implement the room and greater creative learning within their lessons.
