My Project

In today's classrooms, reliable technology is essential. Many students' laptops often have connectivity issues, software issues, and/or other unforeseen obstacles that impede them from utilizing them during class. We are hoping to utilize this classroom laptop as a tool for students who may be experiencing technology issues with their own.

Students can utilize the classroom laptop to continue to participate in digital classroom activities in the instance their laptop is not able to be used for any reason.

Students will be able to stay on-task and on top of their work instead of possibly falling behind by utilizing our classroom computer.
