Mr. U. Henrietta High School
Henrietta, TX Grades 9-12

Seeing is believing. I teach high school chemistry and physics in a rural school district in Texas. Most of my students are in the 10th or 11th grade. We have inclusion in our school so I see almost all student ability levels in my classes.

I currently have a 19 inch color TV mounted from the ceiling in one part of the room. I use many forms of technology including video, PowerPoint, computer flash simulations and other computer programs to get the concepts across. The problem is that if you are not in the first two rows near the television you have a hard time seeing what is on the screen. The farther the students are away from the screen the less they pay attention to what is on it.

If we had an LCD projector in the room then students could see the presentations no matter where they are in the room. Students that can see the presentations will stay more focused on the concepts being taught.

Your help will ensure that my students be able to see the details and better understand the concepts of these difficult subjects.
