This is the eighth in a series of blog “snapshots” of how Mercy students benefit from using iPad technology (and other tools) throughout the school day.
Most of my these posts focus on the academic courses, but in this one shows you how pervasive technology is in our athletic program. Here is a slide show showing how a wide variety of teams use apps and other tech tools
The Athletic Director’s Office has very recently adopted Privit in order to automate required participation records. Assistant AD, Kate Scalzi outlined several reasons for adopting this online solution in favor of paper:
- Parents and families can easily update the records.
- The Athletic Trainer can access all medical records from any location.
- Information is far more unlikely to be misplaced.
- It’s easier to determine if all information has been submitted.
- Secure digital storage.
