Inspiring through technology

As we move into a rapidly changing world where technology is becoming an integral part of our lives, we need to review and rework the way we prepare our students to face the challenges of this "new" world. We believe that technology is the next revolutionary force that will radically reshape the way we communicate, work, play and do business. We are committed to preparing our students to meet the needs of an ever growing and shifting new “digital economy”, and to help them become successful and responsible members of the our society. As we move from the information age to the knowledge age we must be “geared” to prepare our students not to just be consumers of information but to become producers of meaningful information. We understand and realize the need for a timely response to these challenges and the need to prepare our students to sustain and prompt global development.

Our vision for technology is centered on the learning needs of our students. We envisage a connected and distributed community of life long learners who are connect with each other through the comprehensive and systematic use of technology combined with a relevant curriculum, which is focused on career development.  We believe that technology will serve as the catalyst for the transition from traditional learning to a student-centered, problem solving, and project driven approach. It will transform the way we design, develop and deploy our educational program and will enable our students to go beyond the boundaries of their classroom and provide them with access to worldwide resources, anytime and anywhere.

Many research studies have indicated that student performance increases, resulting in students becoming quality communicators, creative problem solvers and inventive collaborators, when they have access to the technology at all times. We believe that consistent and constant access with this learning tool by students strengthens their evolution as critical thinkers, and thereby ensures their success and preparedness for the future. We hope to transform our learning paradigm to a just-in-time model rather than a just-in-case model.

At ECA we are committed to making this program work for our students and to set the pace and provide the model for other schools. We would like to invite you to join us in this quest to make this a reality.
