Though commonly found in larger schools, our district does not have a document camera. With this equipment, my students can experience instruction on an unprecedented level - like having a private tutor! Samples can be enlarged, directions can be given once, and even recorded for playback while individuals receive further instruction (I can be in 2 places at once!) Our existing equipment can hook up in a flash to the camera, saving still shots for reference, and making their teacher a cut above a YouTube video. In addition, the camera will be useful in the dual credit English classes I teach to advanced Juniors and Seniors. We’ll be able to edit text and have more cohesive discussions without making endless photocopies! The Elmo combines the best of technology with the heart of creativity and collaboration for my amazing students who are so grateful for any help they receive.
