RedDoor Centre, RCHK’s technology hub, expands the provisions for all students to
strengthen learning through technology in line with Renaissance College’s Bedrock Principle: to transform learning and teaching through the integration of technology.
All students have access to a 1:1 device for learning. In Year 1 to Year 3, this is an iPad and students then a MacBook from Year 4 through until Year 13. Students also have access to robotics and electronic equipment, which are integrated across Units of Inquiry and Secondary curriculum areas.
The Team
The Red Door Team is a blend of teachers, media and creative professionals, helpdesk specialists and systems experts in network, programming and databases.
Having pedagogical, technical and creative minds housed under one roof is what makes Red Door unique and so capable of innovation and systemic approaches at the same time.
The History
The name “Red Door” was originally given to a group of three creative professionals who worked closely with the ICT team but formed a separate unit. “Door” was chosen as an acronym of “Digital Opportunities On Request” and to symbolize openness and possibilities. Red is regarded as an auspicious colour in Chinese culture. The two teams were eventually merged in 2010 and expanded in 2014 to include instructional coaches.
