"The convenience for the EdTech makes it easy and simple for
students is that they can access schools and students to manage and
it from any device –– desktop, access individualized digital content
laptop, or tablet. They are not using one platform from any device. restricted to one machine."
Susan Conrad School Success Story Director of Technology
St. John Vianney High School
St. John Vianney High School, a private Catholic school in Holmdel, New Jersey, recently had a challenge similar to what many of today’s schools are facing. Their print textbooks were deteriorating, and with funding for the books provided by the state, St. John Vianney needed to find an affordable alternative to preserving the shelf life of their books. “Our text books are not replaced for five to six years and need to last,” said Susan Conrad, Director of Technology for St. John Vianney High School.
The search for a solution became top priority. Conrad’s first step was to contact colleagues from another school in the Diocese of Trenton school district. She remembered that an EdTech representative recently worked with that school, assisting them with the process of transitioning to digital textbooks. She contacted the school’s EdTech representative and had even better than expected results. St. John Vianney was able to piggyback on the plan developed by EdTech for their fellow school, and seamlessly adopted a similar digital platform.
Prior to working with EdTech, Conrad and her team were forced to provide lengthy instructions for all publisher platforms. The platforms required different processes for redemption and logging in, and multiple instructions were created for students and teachers. Working with EdTech helped simplify the steps, creating a standardized implementation process. According to Conrad, “No matter what department, someone needs to have the information in front of them. The purchase orders, codes, etc., are all in one place so that others can share access to it.”
Working digitally, the school has eliminated the daily wear on physical books and, as a bonus, eliminated the inconvenience of students forgetting them. “The convenience for the students is that they can access it from any device –– desktop, laptop, or tablet. They are not restricted to one machine,” she said.
As technology continues to grow within their curriculum, St. John Vianney is taking advantage of technological resources to promote their curriculum’s growth.
