Lilydale Heights College commenced its 1:1 Computing Program in 2010. Using personal student digital devices over several years, we have gained experience and adopted technologies to deliver transformative learning experiences through the One-to-World Learning Access Program.
Transformative Learning Experiences
The ultimate goal of the program is to ensure that all students have transformative learning experiences through universal access to personal devices and school based specialist technologies. The program creates vast opportunities to learn anytime and anywhere and ensure students have access to the right tools. At the same time, it has a very practical, “real-world” approach to computer activities to prepare students for modern careers.
Adaptable and Fit for the Learning Purpose
- Students use personal tablet or laptop devices for general learning activities.
- The College provides access to more productive computers for specific learning areas such as Art, Media and Music.
- Senior students may use approved companion tablet computers as well to enhance productivity and creativity. For example, they might use their companion devices for web-searching and reading, whilst typing and editing files onto their laptops.
Practical and Focused on Careers
- Students use their personal computers with the same Microsoft productive software and technologies, which they would typically have at work.
- Students are provided with Apple iMac computers, Logic Pro X and Adobe Creative Suite software for Art, Media and Music activities, which they would likely use in creative industries.
Flexible and Affordable for Families
- We recommend tablet and laptop computers to you, which are competitively priced for educational institutions.
- We may accept your family purchased portable computer as a BYO student personal or companion device provided that it meets our administrative and technical requirements.
- We provide students with limited technical support at the HelpDesk and assist with warranty claims, as appropriate, for computer devices on loan from the College or bought through us.
