Abstract

The learning technologies area is a focus for many thousands of dollars across the state and with the need to achieve certain ratios by the Year 2002, teachers can be forgiven for thinking that learning technologies is about the quality and quantity of computer equipment in the school. However, it is much more than that; it's about using Learning Technology tools to improve the learning outcomes for our students. These tools enhance student learning by reducing isolation, improving efficiency, increasing motivation and providing opportunities for student interaction and decision-making. During this paper, we will examine a few of the ways South Kalgoorlie Primary School has integrated learning technologies into classroom programs to enhance the learning environment for our students.
