We live in a fast changing technological world. It is our students’ world and we have had to adjust to make connections on every level.
At RRS we understand this and together with our students we are all learning to navigate the digital moana. Part of that journey is using the internet to supplement traditional methods of teaching in fun and innovative ways.
E-learning is learning and teaching that is facilitated by or supported through the appropriate use of information and communication technologies (ICTs). At RRS e-Learning covers a spectrum of activities from supporting learning to blended learning (the combination of traditional and e-learning practices), to learning that is delivered entirely online.
We believe in a balanced approach to teaching and learning which includes on screen and off screen activities. Learning about and with digital technologies will contribute to developing an informed digital society.
To ensure a safe, supportive, and focused digital learning environment, our school uses Linewize, a leading platform for digital safety and student wellbeing.
Linewize is comprised of essential tools that help staff manage technology, monitor for risks, and support students:
Linewize Classwize: Empowers teachers to manage the digital classroom by viewing student screen activity on school devices, minimizing distractions, and focusing learning during lessons.
Linewize Pulse (launching 2026) : Provides a confidential channel for student wellbeing check-ins. Students can safely share how they are feeling, allowing our staff to quickly connect them with support if needed.
Linewize Monitor: This is our digital safety monitoring system. It analyzes student content on school devices for signs of high-risk behavior (like self-harm or bullying), alerting designated staff for rapid intervention.
By utilizing these tools, we are creating a smarter and safer online experience for all students.
RRS is a Netsafe and Family Zone school. Our students’ wellbeing both offline and online is paramount and part of that is providing a safe online teaching and learning environment. We apply our School Values; the Be Attitudes and Teu Le Va both offline and online.
