The laptop will be a huge resource for students not only for scientific discovery and designing, but for all subjects. This will be a community laptop that will be used for centers and group work. Students will be able to expand on their experiments by researching, using design programs to create 3D models, and animations. As a teacher, I try to engage my students by allowing student choice. A lot of students are very interested in coding and designing and I feel I am ill-equipped to provide them with the type of technology that would help engage and interest them in learning. The Chromebooks are only Google-based, and the Mac would allow students to play with outside resources and programs to enhance their computer skills and designing capabilities. Standards: Enginneering: 3-5-ETS1-3 Plan and carry out fair tests in which variables are controlled and failure points are considered to identify aspects of a model or prototype that can be improved 3-5-ETS1-1. Define a simple design problem reflecting a need or a want that includes specified criteria for success and constraints on materials, time, or cost. Science: 5-PS1-1. Develop a model to describe that matter is made of particles too small to be seen. 5-LS2-1 Ecosystems: Interactions, Energy, and Dynamics Develop a model to describe the movement of matter among plants, animals, decomposers, and the environment. 5-ESS2-1 Earth's Systems Develop a model using an example to describe ways the geosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, and/or atmosphere interact.
