With the addition of technology in the classroom, scholars immediately become more engaged in their learning and take ownership of their work. Chromebooks would provide my scholars the opportunity to let their creativity flow while enabling them to feel comfortable taking risks and pushing their boundaries as they showcase their knowledge. Through inquiry-based learning, scholars will have the opportunity to research events of their choosing through a non-fiction lens while making real-world connections to the fictional literacy explored in class. With chromebooks, scholars will be exposed to several different types of media found on the internet, where they can apply the skills and strategies they've learned while analyzing texts in class. It also will enable my scholars to complete research that lends itself to evidence-based argumentative writing, a skill that prepares them for state and district mandated assessments and the real-world beyond. While other types of technology can be useful, being exposed to a Chromebook also develops scholars typing and computer science skills at an early age. As the literacy teacher, I am looking forward to collaborating with the science teacher, Mrs. Brown, and the math teacher, Mr. Hock, on cross-disciplinary inquiry work bringing STEM learning and literacy alive through multimodal projects including videos, podcasts, blogs, collages, audio essays, comic strips, storyboards, and more. By working as a team, scholars will be expected to take skills they have learned in one class and apply them in the next class, holding each scholar accountable for his or her learning and expecting them to apply their learning from any class to showcase their knowledge. With the addition of chromebooks in the classroom, the opportunities to collaborate and work as a team to create various multimodal composition projects to showcase scholars' learnings and knowledge are endless.
