Uso de tecnología en el aula
CIV’s constant concern for educational innovation led to the implementation, in 2006, of an integration project for new technologies, with the use of laptops in the classroom. Nowadays, smart boards and VR were added to these new technologies. Students also use Teams, Managebac and Jstor.
The use of new technologies in all subjects combined with the development of project work (individual and group research methods and techniques together with presentations) has led to a unique development in student learning.
