My students are on a road to biliteracy and would benefit greatly with as many tools as possible. My class is missing a great tool that can provide us with countless amounts of resources to promote engagement, help with targeted lessons for small groups, and allow students to expand their knowledge of technology. Technology has advanced so much in the last decade, that I feel it is important that we educate students on how they can use technology to it’s full extent, and not just to virtually socialize with their peers. A majority of my students do not have access to a computer at home, so my goal is to provide them with a class set... But we will slowly work towards that huge goal!! Our district allows us the access to a lot of online programs that we can use to specifically assign lessons and assignments for students that are struggling with one of their learning goals. Having these laptops in our classroom would allow for a greater number of students to receive additional, individualized support at the same time that I could be working with another group of students. My students have demonstrated their ability to problem solve with the tools they have... They can learn and accomplish so much more with daily access to a computer in the classroom.
