Technology/Digital Learning

Community Consolidated School District 15 recognizes the significant role technology plays in education and in the lives of present and future students. Our commitment to a technology-rich learning environment enables students to engage, question, and create, fostering the essential 21st-century skills of critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and creativity across cultural and digital divides.

Embracing Dr. Michael Wesch's concept of being 'knowledge-ABLE,' we empower students to use technology for finding, analyzing, and evaluating information. This approach helps them make sense of the world, unlocking their passions and potential in a digital landscape.

School District 15 strives to provide a technology-rich learning environment in every classroom. The use of technology is consistent with the curriculum and the varied instructional needs, learning styles, abilities, and developmental levels of the students. Appropriate use and best practices are major concerns for technology use in School District 15. The district also has technology standards for students in Grades K-8.

Technology is a powerful tool 

District 15 recognizes that technology serves as a powerful tool to enhance teaching and learning. With this in mind, teachers and students have ready access to devices that allow for content creation, collaboration, inquiry, and problem-solving.

Preparing students to be successful in a digital age and global economy is a responsibility that Community Consolidated School District 15 takes very seriously. We are a connected learning community

A connected learning community shares information and resources, and provides access to information that will enable all residents to continue to learn throughout their lives. A connected learning community has maximum access to high-quality educational information in all formats and from many sources, and will provide high-quality assistance to information seekers.
