eClass and BYOD



Gwinnett County Public School began an initiative called eClass to promote technology and learning outside of the classroom. 





BYOD(bring your own device) promotes the use of personal devices within the classroom. Students can you use their smartphones, tablets, or laptops in the classroom.


Internet in the home

In today's world, every home must have internet access. School districts expect teachers to create assignments that are technology based. Many school districts offer online textbook, and don't issue textbooks to their students. Summerour Middle School in Gwinnett County is one of those schools. Summerour provides workbooks, but not the textbook. It's imperative that you have internet access in your home.
