My Project
Teaching technology requires finding multiple ways to engage students and to be accessible to the class. Five years ago, I was generously funded with an iPad in which to effectively teach my students and not be stuck to a desk.
My current technology is no longer working and needs to be replaced.
An iPad has proved essential to how I teach my classes and how I am able to present information to my students while being able to annotate it live on their screens. Students will be able to better interact with my curriculum with this.
More than three‑quarters 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
