Schools all over the world are using iPad and Mac to transform learning. As teachers incorporate technology into their lessons, they empower students to lead, learn, and thrive, to discover new opportunities, and to make their world a better place.
Through our 1:1 iPad device program from the Early Years through Middle School, every student at BIS Houston uses an iPad to boost their skills for projects and assignments. Students discover ways to digitally advance their learning through collaborative interactions with peers and their teachers to share knowledge and resources.
From Year 10 onward, students can choose the device that best fits their goals – such as a MacBook – as teachers direct them through the advanced technology appropriate to the pathway of their intended university destination. As students become increasingly advanced, they unlock innovative ways to use tech in their research and creations – well-preparing them to thrive at university and in their future career.
