Make Us Mobile With A Technology Cart!

My students need an AV technology cart to house an LCD projector and laptop that are used daily.

Does technology excite you? I teach a wonderful group of 150 seventh and eighth graders in a high-need, urban public school who are extremely motivated through the use of technology in our classroom.

Because of my students' affinity for all things technology, I try to incorporate it into every lesson. We were finally able to acquire an LCD projector this year, and I am so excited with the things we'll be able to use it for while learning math, reviewing the use of technology they will need to know in high school, and whatever else we can dream up! However, we have limited space in our classroom and it is a daily struggle to balance our projector on stacked items high enough for all 32 students to see its projected images.

We need a sturdy, mobile technology cart to overcome this obstacle and to be able to share our good fortune with others in our school. Having this AV cart would make highly-desired technology accessible not only to us, but to anyone willing to take part in our learning.

Your support of this project would make a daily impact in our classroom. You will make it possible for my students to explore and use the technology without the constant struggle of placing and transporting it. Knowing that you think their interest is important is extremely motivating.
