My Project

I teach at a school where students often lack access to laptops, tablets, or reliable Internet, making it difficult to complete homework or access digital resources. Innovative learning is crucial for students because it prepares them for a rapidly changing world. There are three reasons that are genuinely important for the iMac.

First, the world is evolving quickly with advancements in technology, business, and global challenges.

Innovative learning helps students develop the skills they need for future careers, especially in fields like AI, engineering, and sustainability. It also encourages adaptability and continuous learning. The next reason your donation will support me in providing innovative learning is by shining a light on students' ability to solve real-world problems at an early age. This, in turn, helps students develop critical thinking skills, creativity, and the ability to tackle complex issues, which are key skills in personal, academic and professional environments. Lastly, innovative learning often connects classroom lessons with real-world situations, allowing students to see the practical application of what they are learning.

The Apple - MacBook Air will be just the beginning of interface and design exploration. Most students do not desire going to college so I would love to be able to equip them with skills that they could benefit from.
