My Project
Help give my students the experience of handwritten notes. In my law class, students are challenged to take handwritten notes themselves- something that I see as a vital skill that helps them remember new content better! Every year, I try to provide each student in my law education classes a solid journal that they will use throughout the semester to take notes in. This does a couple of things. First, it allows all students, regardless of socioeconomic status, to get a high quality journal. Second, it teaches students how to properly take handwritten notes. This tends to be harder and more time-consuming than typed notes or "fill-in-the-blank" guided notes, but studies have shown that people better retain information that they have handwritten! The rest of the project is devoted to smaller items that I need refreshed in my classroom.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
