At Insight, homework goes high-tech. No more lugging around textbooks from your locker to home, and back again – almost all your materials are on your laptop, at your fingertips. Although the Insight program is based on today’s latest online education technology, it is designed to be accessible to any high school student, regardless of his or her computer background.

Insight Technology Approach—Technology enables learning, but it is not the focal point of learning. Insight uses computer technology as a way to connect students with courses, content, instructors and other students—but it is up to students to apply their minds and the knowledge they acquire. Students will pickup valuable skills that enhance their information and communications technology (ITC) literacy and that prepare them to collaborate in a 21st century workforce.

Insight Technology Requirements—Families need little more than a dial-up connection to experience the benefits of online learning through Insight. Full-time students will be provided with a late-model laptop computer with wireless capabilities and a printer. By supplying each student with uniform software and hardware, we can provide better support and ensure a consistent and secure educational environment for every student.

Insight Technology Support—We offer online tech support for troubleshooting hardware or software issues.

Insight Technology Security—Online courses are accessible through a password-protected learning management system. Laptops are outfitted with software that limits student access to inappropriate websites.
