Technology is a Tool

Technology is everywhere. It is far too easy to completely reject or embrace it without pause. 

What role does technology play at Infinity School?

We keep the following understandings front of mind: 
🦴 Technology is a tool 
🤯 It has great utility and power 
đź”® This power has unforeseen consequences that demand carefulness, guidance, and respect 
🌋 It allows us to shape the world, and with it, shape ourselves. 

Technology is only used in intentional and minimal ways with our youngest learners. 

In our older classrooms, our learners are tool users and creators. 
⚙️ A learner built a gearbox propeller with a 3D printer and a part for their Rube Goldberg Machine 
🤖 Another discussed a math problem they were stuck on with AI 
đź’» Another used GPT to receive feedback on their writing and experiment with its limitations in summarising research article
