Our very own Principal, Mr Eamonn Moore was interviewed for the Catholic Voice recently in their "Ask the Principal" section.  Here is what he had to say: 

Q: How does your school help students navigate the challenges of modern technology and media?

A: "McAuley Catholic College Tumut has a proud history of supporting students in appropriately using ICT tools. For some time, we have been a “bring your own device” (BYOD) school.

Students are encouraged and supported to use their personal devices in all classes to support their learning. Many classes make use of relevant subscriptions and e-texts. Each class has a Google page set up to allow access and flexibility for students for content and tracking. This also allows parents to be notified of upcoming assessments.

The ethical use of computers and the internet is supported with parent education sessions via the eSafety Commissioner. An ICT Acceptable Use Agreement is completed by our students to assure teachers and parents about correct and acceptable internet use.

Our access to the Archdiocesan Program of Virtual Learning has provided subject choice and expert teachers for our Year 11 and 12 students. A large part of this program equips students with the skills to use ICT and artificial sources ethically and responsibly. We believe we should not fear the power of AI but use it to enhance and strengthen our study and assignments."
