My students will be able to use the Research Center during their free time and during lessons to develop Powerpoint presentations and research subjects of interest to them, which will then be presented in class. Research skills are a very effective tool in the attainment of information in all subjects and teaching children how to conduct research has always been a valuable teaching method for me to teach my students to become more independent and technology savvy. I am requesting Chromebooks to create a Research Center within my classroom. With this technology, I will able to incorporate research assignments into my students’ lessons and instruct them on how to develop their own presentations. It will make complex concepts more accessible and enjoyable. It will facilitate independence and allow my students to enhance their skills in reading, social studies, and science. Additionally, the Research Center will allow me to teach my kids how to access online resources designed to enhance learning that they could use at home or at the library. These resources will allow the children to do their own research and offer them extra practice at home.
