The importance of technology in the educational field leads us to a trans-formational process in order to integrate the same as a meaningful, multiplying and meditating tool within the teaching and learning process.

Sacred Heart Academy has a Computer Resource Center which is available to all students throughout the school day and after school. All computers have access to applications for word processing, spreadsheets, graphics, multi-media, and desktop publishing, as well as variety of specialized educational programs. The computers are equipped with network access to allow students to explore the internet.

Scanners and printers, both black and white and color, are also available for student use. Student may work independently in the Computer Laboratory on school-related projects, or may obtain assistance from computer science teachers in selecting appropriate software for a project, and learning how to use a piece of software or equipment. They may use the computers to access their e-mail accounts and explore internet.

As the use of computers and internet in school grows, so does the need for managing the learning process in networked classrooms.

The computer department does that by centrally instructing students on their computer, keep students on task by monitoring application and web usage, improving support through online help and Chat requests, and save time by quickly polling the class and showing instant results. Teachers and trainers can also record all screen, keyboard and mouse activity on a student workstation to review later or to replay to the class.
