My students attend a Stem magnet, yet they rarely get their hands on techolnology like laptops. They frequently are left sharing one device amongst 4 to 5 people. This year I would like to begin to integrate stations where students can watch videos, explore documents, and create visuals like PowerPoints and videos to capture and grapple with the content. This year I want to grow students as leaders and knowledge holders in the classroom by having them create and present on an area of study. They deserve the space and freedom to explore their options using the technology available to them.
