Dedication Resilience Innovation Vision Ethics Now (DRIVEN)

Help me give my students the opportunities to make informed and wise choices in this technology-driven world, ensuring their lives are filled with success.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Hudson's classroom raised $586

This project is fully funded

My Project

The use of a laptop will allow my students to view historical videos and analyze them for educational purposes. This resource will also allow my students to view PowerPoint presentations as well as create their own presentations. The headphones will allow the students to work independently while editing their presentations. Because we live in a technology-driven society our students need to have the experience of educational technology in their everyday lives.

My project will enhance my student's knowledge as well as open opportunities for technological growth.

We are not at the technological level needed to compete with our peers across this great state. This project will allow our educational process to be more equitable.
