Digital Learning Day

Digital Learning Day was February 1, 2012 and RealSchool: Marketing responded by polling Frisch students on how they viewed technology and education:

The Frisch School Response to Digital Learning:

As technology has begun playing a larger role in education, it is important to ask ourselves: does technology help or hinder the learning process? In honor of Digital Learning Day, many of the Frisch English teachers gave their classes a wiki assignment to discuss this very issue. There were over one hundred responses, each student bringing a fresh perspective on technology's place in education. After reading through the responses, RealSchool Marketing classified them into broader categories. The data is

displayed in the pie charts below. While most students agree that technology enhances learning, many are also wary of the overuse or misuse of technology. Students are primarily concerned with distractions- like Facebook, Hulu, and Youtube – that are available on the Internet.

Thank you to Gabrielle Schlakman, Danya Schlussel and Penina Warburg for compiling the information from this survey.
