Frontline tech in classroom
By a staff reporter

17 February 2007
DUBAI — Tech Connections, a unique display of technology integration within the classroom, will be held on February 19 for the third time in a row for students at the Dubai American Academy (DAA).

Running from 11am to 2pm at the DAA premises, Tech Connections will feature a wide range of technology, including the educational use of the Ninentendo Wii, Promethean Boards, Podcasting and Robotics.

In addition to being a showcase of frontline technology, the show is unique in that it combines the fun and exciting ways such technology has been integrated into the classroom.

An initiative originally created by the Student Tech Crew of DAA, Tech Connections has grown to become a major ICT fair in Dubai.    Students at DAA promise a bigger and better show, bringing on board their compatriots from four other schools, Dubai Modern High School, Jumeirah Primary School, Jumeirah College and Wellington International School.

Tech Connections is an initiative that is thought of, organised and led by our students.

“We feel proud to invite everyone to see our students take the centre stage and to enjoy a day filled with the wonders of connecting with technology,” said Dan Young, Superintendent, Dubai American Academy.
