My Students

Technology in the classroom: It doesn't replace good teaching, it makes it better!

My students struggle in math and science.

Yet these are exactly the skills required for tomorrow's jobs. My course provides a path to success in science. My students do not always think about their future so I plan on making each one understand that science can be a part of theirs.

My Project

Integrating computers into our classroom will result in greater engagement by my students. Engagement leads to practice, and practice leads to success! My students will find science relevant and interesting. They can make smarter choices about the world they live in.

Science is for everyone.

I believe that by adding Chromebooks to my classroom, students will be able to develop knowledge that is relevant to themselves and the world they live in.
