Effective, appropriate technology tools are an integral part of the learning at all our divisions.
Technology
Our vision is that all students will learn to harness digital tools and emerging technologies in powerful, creative and ethical ways to meet their educational goals and deepen their understanding of the world. Technology serves to amplify our institution’s commitment to creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, synthesis of ideas, and reflection. We intentionally integrate the most effective and appropriate tools to empower even our youngest learners to navigate the evolving digital landscape with confidence, curiosity and integrity
Technology Support
Harker’s network infrastructure, collaborative leadership, support personnel, and commitment to professional development provide the foundation for our technology program. Each division has a Director of Learning, Innovation and Design who encourages and facilitates innovative teaching and learning. Dedicated ITSS staff maintain student help desks and assist teachers with their tech needs. These specialists continuously monitor emerging trends in educational technology and supporting infrastructure to ensure that both teachers and students are empowered to leverage the innovative tools and resources that Harker provides. Harker teachers also engage in professional development locally, nationally and internationally as participants, presenters and hosts. Internal structures exist for teachers to share their insights so the entire community of learners benefit.
