Technology and Mobile Learning at CHS

The Class of 2014 was one of the original group of students at Castleberry HS to begin the district's journey on our one-to-one initiative with technology. Our seniors were asked the following questions:
How do you believe our one-to-one initiative with netbooks has prepared you as a 21st century learner? How has mobile learning helped you personalize your learning?
See below for a few responses from Castleberry HS seniors.

"I think the netbooks were more of a convenience. They were very resourceful..."
"I get to keep my netbook/files organized the way I need it to be, and finding resources is much easier."
"It's helped me become more familiar with Microsoft Office programs."
"Using the Edmodo app on my iphone has helped me keep up with assignments when I don't have my netbook with me."
"Has made information easier to reach. Any question I have can be Googled and check in a second."
"Allowed me to find important information as soon as I needed it."
"Mobile learning helped me personalize my learning by locating research I wanted."
"It helped me to better understand technology in a deeper way."
"It has helped me gain more skills in Microsoft Office and using them for presentations for projects."
"Helps me learn in my own manner that makes me more efficient at retaining information."
