My Project

I would love to have these virtual headsets for use in our classroom as we work on numerous STEM projects as a team. I am sure that these headsets would come in handy when working with a specific type of student because many of us are visual learners, and these headsets would be very useful when explaining different projects to them. We are looking forward to having our students float through the galaxy in our classroom during their time here, and it will be a great experience for them. In my request, I requested ten as we can use them on a small group basis as well as have a backup in case of an unforeseen accident. We will benefit greatly from these.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
