My Project

Our school currently does not have the funds to purchase a class projector. Our 7th and 8th grade student must complete a Civics project in which they will tackle a problem in the community, come up with a solution, and present their proposal to the rest of class. A projector in our classroom would empower my students to create and deliver more engaging presentations. The ability to communicate persuasively and present ideas coherently is invaluable for civic engagement. Whether it's expressing opinions in a community meeting or advocating for a cause, effective communication is a cornerstone of responsible citizenship.

From enhancing comprehension to fostering collaboration, exposure to diverse perspectives, and developing essential skills, a classroom projector is a necessity.

Students need access to basic technology to contribute significantly to the holistic development of our visual learners and prepare individuals to actively engage in their communities.
