在Roxbury Latin,我们的目标是提供技术资源、培训和支持,以不断改善这里的教学和学习。

技术

罗克斯伯里拉丁学校的技术在我们学生的教育中发挥着重要作用。无论是在IDEA实验室、Mary Rousmaniere Gordon图书馆、Harry Lewis学习中心、校园内的教室,甚至是在家里,信息服务部的使命始终如一:我们旨在提供技术资源、培训和支持,不断改善Roxbury Latin的教学和学习。我们相信罗克斯伯里分校的课程应该有效地利用技术来推动教育。我们的课程和课外的机会为学生在大学和其他地方的高级学习做好准备。

At Roxbury Latin, we believe that our classrooms and our physical spaces should be designed to seamlessly integrate technology and foster a collaborative learning environment. Our 1-to-1 laptop program ensures that each student has consistent and reliable access to the tools that they need for their classwork in school and at home, and allows teachers to expand their curricula to take advantage of the latest technological developments, regardless of the classroom space.  Furthermore, knowing that each student has their own laptop allows us to design specialized lab spaces that build on the abilities of the student devices, rather than providing redundant computing resources.

The Roxbury Latin Invention, Design, Engineering, and Art (IDEA) Lab is our  community hub for creativity and STEAM learning. We endeavor to provide a space where all potential roadblocks to the creative and engineering design processes are torn down. The IDEA Lab provides the spaces (flexible and specific-use), tools (digital, traditional, and digital fabrication), and time (classes, clubs, and open shop time) for our boys to explore and manipulate the world around them.

数学-科学探究是该空间的课程基石。作为四年级的必修课,MSI是一门STEAM(科学、技术、工程、艺术和数学)驱动的、基于项目的综合课程。它旨在给学生介绍工程和解决问题的方法,并强调数学和科学在现实世界中的应用,同时利用最先进的技术工具。美学在设计过程中的重要性,特别是当它涉及到沟通一个人的想法时,是男孩们所做的每个项目的基础。

The IDEA Lab is regularly available for students to explore the potential of the Lab and their own creative ideas. Students may opt to take part in guided projects or to bring their own ideas and projects to life. We encourage the boys to explore the wide spectrum of making, from traditional fine woodworking to flying quadcopters. Each project they attempt builds and develops their knowledge, skill, and creative confidence—their ability to approach a new problem with the confidence that they can make strides toward a solution.
