Times are changing! Education, the curriculum, our students, and especially technology changes in a blink of an eye. I'd love to have the technology to support innovative resources to meet the changing demands of meeting the needs of our children. I'm looking to update and upgrade the technology in the classroom. Currently, the old projector and screen has become obsolete and finding replacement bulbs are hard to find. Lighting in the classroom makes seeing the screen a challenge. I'm requesting a Samsung LED Smart TV, a Touchjet Android Tablet TV System Projector. Having this new technology will better support and educate the students with our current curriculum and meet the changing educational demands. What better way to use technology that will be impacting and preparing students for the future? Being able to connect via a broad range of devices and apps will provide opportunities for many students to explore and utilize technology in the classroom. Therefore, provide opportunities to demonstrate learning, inquiry-based exploration, and hands-on activities. This opportunity will provide an improvment in their school lives. Students could see more, do more, and peek their interests. Not only will this benefit them, but provide me, their teacher, a greater opportunity to enrich and extend their learning. My students are engaged when we work viewing a display from our projector, however, the projector is really old, touch to view, and unable to interact with all of the new tech opportunities. Students will be more engaged when interacting with this technology of a Smart TV and accessories. This will keep students on task and provide more in ALL facets of learning.
