at CRC Sydenham
– ICT is considered to be a fundamental component of
learning and teaching

discerning users of technology

the flexible delivery of curriculum

students to maximise their full potential and to
prepare them for lifelong learning in modern society

5. Why the iPad?
– Personal device and reasonably priced to act as a 1 to
1, anywhere, anytime learning tool;
– Light and portable, easily carried in the school bag and
to and from class rather than heavy textbooks;
– The interface correlates to the technology students use
in everyday life and allows for interactivity;
– The iPad is an intuitive device with minimal technical
support required and through the use of apps students
can construct the product that suits their learning
needs.
