Study Technology – empowering students of all ages

Imagine Things Going Right In School

Imagine a school your child didn't want to leave at the end of the day—where learning was a joy and studying an exciting adventure. Imagine a faculty that knew enough about study and learning to create a school environment like that. Suppose that as the young child became a mature student this sensible approach to study and learning became a working and natural part of his or her approach to not only school but life.

And imagine there was a way to recognize when the student had gotten off track in his or her studies and both the teacher and the student knew exactly what to do to turn that around. Imagine, instead of plowing ahead year after year amid a mass of confusion and boredom, this student became more bright, more eager and more confident, rather than less.

Imagine things going so right in school that when a student finally graduated from high school, that student was enthusiastic, competent and truly prepared to tackle learning for the rest of his or her life.

If you can imagine these things, you can imagine a school with Study Technology because that is the kind of environment Study Technology creates in a school.

The Study Technology Environment

Study Technology (or simply Study Tech) was developed by American author and educator L. Ron Hubbard. With very young students, Study Tech is an approach to learning used by teachers to help the student know why he is studying something, to allow him to fly through the learning of it and to keep his natural interest intact and growing.

All parents know how quickly a child learns things in which he has a genuine interest. There's no prodding, no nagging, no forcing. It's a natural process. All schooling should be like that, and with the right tools, it can be.

At Delphi Academy, students learn about Study Technology from their side of the learning equation—how can they get learning obstacles out of their way? How can they quickly get something they want to know and then put it to real use? Once a student gains the skill of effective study, he or she can take greater and greater responsibility for his or her own education.

School can and should be a blast for kids. If their natural drive to learn isn't blunted, there is nothing children like better than gaining new abilities and practicing growing up. Study Tech is for kids. Study Tech is for all learners.

Real Learning

In the end, students who know and use Study Tech acquire the ability to study any subject effectively and independently. It's a powerful tool that gradually allows students to take genuine control of their own educations and, ultimately, their futures.

Empowering students with an ability to study is an investment that pays off for a lifetime. It starts in the Lower School and just expands from there.
