Digital Literacy CurriculumIn support of all students having a robust digital literacy education we are rolling out new technology to 129 schools, including robotics and iPad kits and new chromebooks. This equipment will engage kids in the coding curriculum, problem solving, and computational thinking. We are also rolling out additional training for digital literacy teachers alongside all new equipment. |
