This teacher needs your help!

Mr. Kessler from Leander, TX is requesting technology through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

e-Portfolio Equipment

My students need 2 Chromebooks so that they can take pictures of their work and create portfolios of learning on an ongoing basis.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Kessler's classroom raised $511

This project is fully funded

My Students

"I'm so proud of this product! I'll go grab a laptop to take a video of what I did for my e-portfolio!" OR "I wonder if...." --> "I'll go look it up on the laptop"

We are the best students around.

We are a diverse group of people, who are all hard working, motivated, and engaged in our learning. We are learning about science, technology, engineering and mathematics as we investigate and create solutions to problems.

My Project

We have access to technology in the computer lab. However, we do not yet have any technology resources within the regular classroom; these two Chromebook computers would make a huge difference for kids to seamlessly research ideas and record their work in e-portfolios within the classroom setting.

The laptops will serve as a strong compliment to the classroom learning.

Students will use the devices to research ideas but also to collect evidence of their learning within the classroom.
