Never heard of iCoach? - PDCI is home to a unique program in its fifth term. As students in the iCoach program, we work collaboratively with teachers to plan lessons whereby iPad technology and other web applications are integrated into the classes to enhance classroom instruction. We also create promotional videos and materials for PDCI as well as undertaking other projects within the Perth community.

In the past students in our course organized and lead two successful conferences for teachers and educators across Eastern Ontario as well as a conference for local businesses and non-profit organizations. Our conference focus this year is to share our knowledge and skills with teachers looking to learn more about using technology to support the UCBSB SIPSA literacy and numeracy goals.
