My students come from all over the Las Vegas Valley. They are a diverse population of students working at their level of understanding in a rigorous environment. Our school mission is to bring forth future leaders through a fusion of classical education and STEM instruction in an environment that promotes liberty and virtue.
Our school vision is Knowledge, Freedom, Leadership.
We are working hard in and out of our classrooms to provide everything our students need to be successful.
My students usually carry many things in their backpacks including school supplies, their lunches, and personal belongings. They also carry the weight of responsibility, as they strive to represent their family in the most positive way through their behavior and achievement. This year, though it is challenging, they are trying their best to make sure they are in their virtual classroom on time and with positive attitudes. My students are AMAZING!
My Project
Six hours a day teaching students online is a wonderful experience, but also very difficult on the eyes. During online Zoom lessons, multiple windows are open including the Zoom meeting with the student videos, chat box, and a list of participants.
A second monitor would allow me to see the students and also see the lessons I am sharing with them.
Using one monitor, I have to choose between watching the students, and watching what I am doing. Having a second screen to manage all that is happening in the online classroom would benefit the students with a better-managed online class.
This screen will benefit my students because I will be able to provide them with the quality instruction they need during this challenging time! A second screen will allow me to see what students are working on, and how I can help them be successful in a virtual setting.
