St. Charles College students participated in IGNITE, the first annual technology fair, last Thursday.
Students have been incorporating their math, science and computer skills into using innovative and advanced technology to create projects. The fair allowed them to show off their work and present the new technology that is available for use in secondary schools within the Sudbury Catholic District School Board.
The technology allows students to use their math and computer skills in a hands-on setting, engaging in more advanced projects that improve their overall knowledge. Students have been using computer systems and cameras that align with GoPRO and Green Screens, creating interactive, professionally-made videos for class projects.
Using a combination of math and speed analysis, students have also been working with robotics and coding, allowing them to create movements for robots such as Sphere-O bots and Ozobots.
Technology used in the IGNITE fair is made available to students in each Secondary Learning Hubs. Learning Hubs are located at Bishop Alexander Carter Catholic Secondary School, St. Benedict Catholic Secondary School, St. Charles College and Marymount Academy.
