My AP Spanish Literature course is equivalent to a third-year university survey course in Spanish literature, covering literature from the Medieval Period to the Twentieth Century. During the academic year, my students read the unabridged works of thirty-nine Spanish and Latin American authors on the required AP Spanish Literature Reading List. I teach this course entirely in Spanish and my focus is to instruct my students to read, understand and analyze authentic works in prose, poetry, and drama. By the end of my course, my students write about, discuss and critically analyze any literary work with the ability of a college student. I am extremely proud of them! I am looking to get an iPad Pro to efficiently help my students learn how to analyze and write about literary texts. Over the past four years, I have used document cameras to model the process of analyzing literary texts through annotation techniques. Depending on how many classes I teach, I prepare several hard copies of a text and I keep an efficient system to store them. If I want to show a visual to my students to clarify a word or understand a concept, I have to disconnect the document camera and transition to my laptop. My limited access to a color printer and the low quality of the document camera lenses prevent me from sticking to only one technology tool. Because this class has a strong art analysis component, I find myself transitioning from my laptop to a document camera more often than I wish. In sum, we really need to access to an iPad pro to have a tool to easily model annotation strategies, display sharp images, store class exemplars, and use every second of our class efficiently.
