Ms. Solum from Reno NV is requesting computers & tablets through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

DRHS Interactive Science Lessons

Help me give my students an interactive teaching tool that will allow me to demonstrate how to graph, solve Hardy Weinberg problems, answer challenging AP Biology questions and illustrate the answers to Chi Square problems. Thank you.

My Project

I think an IPad would be a valuable tool in a science classroom. I would be able to demonstrate challenging concepts and model how to solve difficult science problems.

Showing students how to accurately graph and create appropriate data tables on an IPad would be wonderful.

In AP Biology I can model how to answer FRQ and multiple choice questions while using the IPad. Solving chi square problems and Hardy Weinberg problems would also be easier on an IPad. I also think students could use the IPad when they are presenting projects to their peers.

I like the idea of modern technology enhancing learning for all students.
