Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

The iPad Mini will be utilized for students and their peers with special needs, particularly in the Autism Spectrum Disorder. We would like to use the iPad Mini to incorporate our learning into devices and apps that can showcase what we are learning in STEM class. In this day and age, technology is a vital component of learning. The iPad Mini will aid in engaging our students in a more in depth exploration of real-world issues and solving authentic problems using digital tools and resources. I believe these iPad Minis will help every single student's growth through STEM.
