One to One Laptop Program

One to One Laptop Program

Thanks to a generous grant from Northfield Bank, New World Prep was able to implement their One-to-One Laptop Program.

Beginning with the Class of 2020, every New World Prep Scholar will receive a Chrome Book Laptop. Scholars will also be given a hotspot. The laptop will be an additional instructional tool for students to use both in the classroom and at home. By the academic school year 2019 -20 all New World Prep Scholars will have their own laptops. When Scholars graduate they will be able to take the laptops with them to their High School.

The Northfield Bank Grant allows for a greater use of the instructional approach called blended learning. The laptops will be utilized in a blended learning classroom environment as well as for research, assessment, on-line resources and differentiated instructional materials.  This will allow for improving teacher-to-student and student-to-student communication.

Blended learning is a student-centered approach that provides a learning experience whereby the learner interacts with other students, with the instructor, and with content through thoughtful integration of online and face-to-face environments.

New World Prep is grateful to Northfield Bank for this generous grant.
