A new Macbook laptop would be a powerful student learning opportunity allowing me to bring technology into my daily teaching and projects. Students would benefit EVERYDAY through visuals, video clips, photos, Keynote slide shows, live streaming current events, online learning such as Kahoot, Quizlet, and would be able to create using graphic design for projects throughout the year, as well as music mixing for our Record Co Project. My classroom focus is on Learning by Doing. We do Project Based Learning (PBL) throughout the year. Students learn about our past by creating music and art. I incorporate projects in every chapter. Projects like the Record Co. Project where students create an album where they rewrite songs with history lyrics, and turn those songs into music videos. Students create campaign posters for the study of historical elections, or when they run for President during our Government Simulation where the rest of class becomes Congress or the Supreme Court. Having a computer with these capabilities and software to create would be a powerful learning opportunity.
