Students will become more creative in their thoughts and learning with the use of technology and utensils, such as color pencils to make their creations of maps vibrate and eye catching. Many of my students are eager to adventure out via technology and within his/her imagination through making maps come to life with bold and bright colors which allows them to create new and exciting idea in the world of geography. However, true learning cannot happen with broken laptops/computers and colored pencils or not enough to accommodate the students. My students will have the opportunity to research and create colorful maps beyond the means of their learning and own imaginations. Students will have the opportunity to research information for projects, and complete interactive activities within the classroom to help them build essential skills as geographers. By having additional technology and the necessary colored pencils for my students, it will allow them the opportunity to become true geographers.
