Digital Technology

Digital Technology is based on the development of computer related skills to acquire, organise and present information. Students will also be encouraged through their learning to be responsible digital citizens. 

This subject enhances achievement in other disciplines and equips students with the skills required to use information and communication technology across the school curriculum. No previous experience is needed to do these courses. Students will create and produce work using both College and personal devices. 

Each course covers different content, allowing students to select both if they wish. 

What will be covered in this course?

  • use of various windows software programs to create different ways to present content 
  • how mobile apps are created and design their own functional app 
  • use MicroBit and coding to design robotics to solve various challenges.
