Bring Your Own Device (BYOD)

At Penrith Anglican College, we aim to equip students to thrive in a rapidly changing world.

At Penrith Anglican College, we aim to equip students to thrive in a rapidly changing world.

Many of the future jobs our students will take part in do not exist today, so we need to train our students how to access the plethora of information available in order for them to be lifelong learners who have the skills of:

  • Creativity
  • Critical thinking
  • Communication and
  • Collaboration

The 1:1 Learning Program enables students to collaborate using the Office 365 Suite, to communicate using a variety of media and to embark on projects that involve critical thinking and creativity.

It allows teachers to tailor learning so that students can learn at their own pace and through our learning management system, Canvas, provide learning experiences that would not have been available previously. Students can obtain immediate, relevant feedback on their work and teachers can see exactly what the students are doing. It also allows students to go back over previously taught material at any time. Our BYOD program empowers students to engage with and learn to manage their own learning.

To learn more about the 1.1 Learning Program, please read our Handbook.
