When lots of people are playing and learning together in a comparatively small space, it can be exciting and inspiring. But it is also demanding and tiring. The noise level is high, and we are constantly bombarded with stimuli. Places of retreat are therefore a must. Especially in all-day schools, where people often spend seven to ten hours at a time together.
Digital media offer a wide range of opportunities in secondary schools: they promote pupils' media skills, enable individualised learning, provide access to up-to-date information and prepare pupils for the digital world of work. Interactive tools make lessons more lively and motivating.
