These items will completely change my students' daily experience. I am online with my class from 8:30 AM until 3:30 PM. My 2010 computer and first-gen iPad cannot keep up. My meetings are "freezing" at least 5 times a day. I can not share the items on my desktop with my students or use the document camera so the students can follow me without "freezing". My students spend more time waiting for my tech to keep up than they do actually learning. With the technology I am asking for I will be able to run my virtual classroom properly giving my kids the best possible opportunities for being successful. I want them to have that chance. They deserve it.
