Laptops would enhance my students' classroom experience in English Language Arts. Currently, most of my students have no or limited access to technology in their homes; therefore, I would create a "laptop center" in my classroom for students to access in class or during the day in order to complete assignments since we ask our students to access and use Google Apps. Aside from daily access, the laptop technology would allow my students to tackle different tasks during class instruction by rotating through "work centers," and one center would be the "tech center" where students will participate in online discussions and blogs, create multi-media projects, explore alternative media sources to increase comprehension, edit and revise writing assignment, access online webquests, engage grammar and reading programs - like IXL, Listenwise and NewELA - and conduct research on a variety of topics to bridge the knowledge gap between my students' prior knowledge and new information to enhance their skills to become effective communicators to forge positive relationships in school, home, and work.
