 Computer technology is a 1-trimester elective class taught during the winter/spring.  We first learn about how a computer works and basic repair.  Project move on to advanced word processing, powerpoint projects, photo editing and manipulation, digital and stop-motion animation, and audio design.  Students work in a group workshop environment and create products that are an expression of each student's creativity.
