My Students
These live in one of the most impoverished cities in the state of New Jersey and come to school every single day with dreams and hopes for a better future. They are excited and enthusiastic about learning despite knowing they are behind in their education (which is no fault of their own). Students have difficulty with language; they live in less than perfect situations at home and come to school hungry. Many are socially placed because of their age despite not having the proper grade level education.
Students' parents work long hours and are not able to help their child with their learning due to the language barrier and/or lack of education.
My Project
My students need three HP printer ink cartridges and 20 reams of copy paper for a variety of projects that incorporate 21st century technology. Technological literacy is essential if our students are to be competitive in a 21st century global economy. As a result of this, integrating technology into classroom instruction should be one of the top priorities of any good educator. Access to technology would allow students to be active participants in the learning process rather than passive recipients of information, which would ensure they develop a better depth of knowledge of the concepts they are learning. It also allows for differentiation not only on the basis of academic levels, but for interests, as well.
My students need ink to help them gain the skills that will enable them to compete in a 21st century global economy.
Using the printer along with computer technology in a collaborative learning environment for researching, writing and mathematical application skills, rather than just simple drills and practice, helps foster student creativity, collaboration, and communication. The use of technology in the classroom allows instruction to be highly customizable; students can work independently or collaboratively as active participants in the learning process rather than passive recipients of information.
