School Year 2011 - 2012

 

New this year is the TLS Tech Club!  Once a month or every six weeks, the club would meet after school for an hour and a half to learn more about technology (okay, sometimes we would game a bit!!).  We learned about webpages, scanning photos, the school iPad2, powerpoint presentations, and peripheral equipment (how to connect a projector to a computer, for example).

 

As mentioned above, the school purchased an iPad2, then assigned eighth and seventh grade  students a 'take home' week so that the students and their families could learn more about Apple's touch technology!

Spring 2012

 

The big spring project in the computer lab is the Eighth Grade Graduation video.  Students bring in photos to scan or copy from digital format, then use them to create a video using Windows Moviemaker.  They choose music for their individual sections of the video.  They learn editing skills...  All the while learning to take responsibility for their individual work as well as work in dynamic team settings.



Other classes wrapped up the year with typing skills and their own class projects.

Summer 2012

 

Enjoying summer and getting ready for the coming school year!  The computer lab carpet is cleaned (thank you, Mr. Handlin!), emails are flying, and research is ongoing to upgrade our technology at school.  Besides being part of the overall school mission of Trinity Lutheran Church, we have many generous businesses, families and individuals who donate to this ongoing effort.  Shortly I will have an outline of computer lessons for the coming year!
