My Project

Each of these items can contribute to a more engaging and effective learning environment in different ways. They will help students with ADHD or those who have difficulty sitting still to better focus on tasks and learning materials, and provide a calming effect for anxious or stressed students. Coding bots introduce students to programming concepts and computational thinking, preparing them for future careers in technology and enhancing problem-solving skills. These tools can contribute to a more engaging, adaptable, and effective learning environment, promoting focus, visual engagement, and the development of valuable skills.
