Innovation & Technology

Information and Communications Technology (ICT) is a powerful tool for learning, and at Saint Ignatius’ College Riverview we embed ICT within evidence-based teaching practice to meet both current and future learning needs for all students. 

Technology is used in innovative and purposeful ways to enhance depth, quality and engagement in learning. Every student is issued with a College laptop upon enrolment, and we use a combination of digital and traditional textbooks. A wide range of internet and cloud-based platforms are integrated seamlessly into learning programs across subject areas. 

To support responsible and focused digital engagement, the College uses Linewize, a student wellbeing and cyber safety platform. Linewize allows teachers to monitor device usage in real time, ensuring laptops are used appropriately during lessons and that learning remains purposeful and distraction-free. 

Our Learning Management System, Canvas, is central to the learning experience. Students can access lessons, tasks, resources and assessment information both on campus and at home. Parents also have access to Canvas, allowing them to view their son’s progress, assessment results and feedback, effectively providing live reporting on formative and summative tasks throughout the year.
