My Project

I work with a wonderful bunch of diverse middle school learners who love to work with technology. Many of my students struggle with literacy.

The use of technology will help to increase student engagement and productivity in the classroom.

Many of my students do not have access to a computer at home.

Chromebooks will be used in school and at home as needed. We currently have a shortage of Chromebooks at the school. The Chromebooks will provide the students with easy-to-access information, accelerated learning, and fun opportunities to practice what they learn in the classroom. I currently have a few Chromebooks which the students have to share. Having multiple computers in the classroom will allow the students to engage simultaneously in cooperative learning, research, and group projects. This will also allow the students access to engage in the district eLearning-based curriculum.
