The use of tablets is a daily activity in my classroom, especially in math and Language Arts. The tablets allow me to see exactly what they are doing, as well as how well they are doing and focus on their needs, strengths and deficiencies. What becomes a problem is the fact that we don't have enough tablets and are forced to share. Even though they are great about doing this, it is distracting for many of my students who have focusing issues and they miss important instruction from either myself or other students. By having enough tablets, students will be able to avoid all of these problems and focus on increasing their learning! By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement. Students will be able to simply focus on the academic material at hand, and not be upset that their peers are getting precious time on the tablets and they are getting left out or missing out. Plus in this technology literate world, any interaction with updated technology will increase their literacy as well as their desire to learn and use the new technology!
