I want to be able to teach my students how to code! By getting another iPad, more students will have access to our class robotics. We will now be able to use our Dash and Dot robots with the whole class! If my project gets funded, I will now have Bee Bots to use with my younger students to help to introduce them to coding. At my school I have access to laptops however, I have seen younger students struggle trying to use the mouse pad. The students have an easier time coding with the touch screen on an iPad.
