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 Students

Our school has approximately700 middle school students and we are located in the inner city. The school is comprised of 6th, 7th, and 8th graders. The entire school receives free breakfast and lunch. Many are eager learners who want to succeed and work hard. Our district is eager for our students to get technology experience and learn to create student-based learning projects where they are not limited in their learning. My goal is to broaden their learning atmosphere by opening up the digital world where they can learn about and create projects that can change the world they live in for the better. I constantly tell them that they will change the world and their dreams are just the door cracking on their future goals and they are the ones who will open the door to do great things.

My Project

With these MINDSTORMS Education EV3 Core Sets, students will continue to create and develop different types of technology that will allow them to be real-world problem solvers where there are no limits on their dreams on aspirations. Theories are tested and revised until they get the desired results. These students work together to persevere to reach their goals and will work many hours after-school, online and at home, discussing, testing, and retesting their creations. Students will then enter their prototypes in city-wide competitions against other middle schools throughout the county and state.
