My Project
The benefits of having one-to-one devices in a classroom are boundless. Students can work at their own pace using their devices. Students can collaborate on assignments, watch videos, research for projects with their devices. Downside? The devices need to be charged; sometimes at the same time!
This project seeks to acquire enough power strip towers for all corners of my classroom, allowing students to continue working uninterrupted while charging their devices.
So often, my students have their devices, but they need to charge. There are not enough outlets in my classroom for multiple students to charge devices at the same time. Additionally, to charge their devices, students have to relocate close to the outlets. With the power strip towers, students can remain in their seats, charge their devices, and finish their work in peace.
More than half of students from low‑income households
