One middle school in Catoosa is on the cutting edge when it comes to using technology in the classroom. As Fox 23’s Douglas Clark explains, a new program is changing the way kids learn and teachers teach. With the help of a federal grant, Catoosa Public Schools bought every 7th and 8th grader a laptop computer. It means a new approach to learning geared toward the internet generation. They’re the relics of yesterday’s classroom – a dusty overhead projector, a lonely chalkboard, and a pencil sharpener that looks like an antique. Talk about old school. This is 2010, after all. For kids today it’s all about technology.
