Technology @ NYA
On Campus, In the Classroom
There are more than 90 computers available for student use on campus, providing an extraordinary research and study tool for students. Students have access to the Internet in five IBM-compatible computer labs: in the Library, the Mertz Science Center, the student lounge, the Savage Middle School, and a specially equipped lab for language study in Russell Hall. The system also provides word processing applications and opportunities for NYA students to use electronic mail. Each student has a personal user account, a private space in which to save schoolwork, and a private email account where they may send and receive messages from other students, faculty and the outside world. This technology also provides teachers with educational software to be used in their classes. The majority of classrooms on campus are technology-enhanced, providing teachers with multimedia technology designed to improve the classroom experience of both teachers and students. Each classroom is provided with a data projector as well as a full range of audio/visual equipment.
