The students will learn how to incorporate engineering, math and technology together in their math class by using the Sphero robots. They will be used to help the students understand slope of a line and other algebra concepts. These robots will help me to explain the different concepts in a physical manner during our video conferencing sessions that we have during our distance learning sessions. The robots will help the students to actually see the algebra concepts in action through Google Meets sessions. I am hoping this will help my students that learn better by seeing, instead of by just performing the process "because the teacher said so". In today's world, students need to be able to see and do in order to understand. Using the robots will allow them to see and do in real time in a way that would not be possible otherwise (since they aren't physically in the classroom right now). Please help me get these robots for my students, so I can teach them effectively from home. Without funding for this project, my students will never have the opportunity to experience the robots and the learning experience that comes along with them.
