Bring Your Own Device Program (BYOD)
为什么是一对一?
Beginning in the Fall of 2024, 十大正规彩票平台 implemented a Bring Your Own Device Program (BYOD). All students are required to use a laptop daily, in both the classroom and at home. This BYOD learning environment has enabled our faculty to integrate emerging technology into our students’ educational experience. With the immersion of a laptop into the daily curriculum, the classroom has shifted to a student-centered model. The BYOD program seeks to develop in our Curley men the skills critical to success at both the collegiate and professional levels in the 21st Century. 批判性思维, 解决问题, and the ability to work collaboratively are some of the skills that are emphasized in an environment designed to stimulate creativity and innovation.
工具 & 应用程序
With the use of a laptop in the classroom, students and faculty have seen an increase in the ability of students to provide immediate feedback to their teachers, improved organization for studying and note-taking, and the opportunity for exploration at their fingertips. These ideals are cultivated through engagement with the following educational apps:
- Google Workspace and Apps (Docs, Sheets, Slides, Classroom, Chrome)
- 纸质书本
- 多媒体的应用
- 微软办公软件 & 网络应用程序

笔记本电脑的好处
Introducing laptops in the classroom brings significant financial benefits. Switching to e-books and online materials saves money by eliminating the need for printed textbooks, reducing printing costs, and ensuring cost-effective updates. Laptops also contribute to the longevity of digital resources, unlike physical materials that wear out. Shared software licenses and customized learning materials help optimize costs by spreading them among more users and meeting specific educational needs. These digitalization efforts promise both immediate and lasting financial benefits for 十大正规彩票平台.
