ATM is a technology program at Bancroft Middle School. ATM stands for Applied Technology Magnet. It's a 3 year program from 6th to 8th grade. You learn stuff from typing to coding to so much more.
In 6th grade we basically started off with typing and many more including:
- Screen Casting
- Microsoft Word and Excel
- PowerPoint
- Basics of IMovie
In 7th grade ATM we learned...
- Basics of Coding (code.org)
- Photoshop
- Thinglink
- Illustrator
- Floorplanner
- Basics of Photography
I have learned a lot this year and there is still lots more to learn. But here are some things I learned:
- Storyboard that
- Dash Coding
- Garage Band
- Khan Academy
- How to turn short clips into a movie/video
The ATM program is a great program, when I first entered the program I knew nothing about computers or technology. I couldn't even type homerow. But now I know many of things and it has been very helpful to me and it will be helpful in the future as well. For projects I know how to use PowerPoint, Excel, or Word thanks to the ATM program. Overall, I loved ATM and it really increased my knowledge on technology.
