My Project

In today's technology-driven education system, Chromebooks have become essential tools for both teaching and learning. However, their effectiveness depends heavily on consistent access to power. A Chromebook charger may seem like a small accessory, but in a classroom environment, it plays a critical role in maintaining productivity, minimizing disruptions, and ensuring equal access to digital resources.

When a student’s device runs out of battery, they are forced to stop working, which not only affects their learning but can also distract others.

With a charger on hand, students can quickly plug in and continue their work without missing valuable instruction time.

This project will provide each student in my class with access to a charger. A Chromebook charger is more than just a piece of equipment—it’s a key part of a well-functioning, equitable, and efficient classroom. By reducing disruptions, supporting all students, and enabling the full use of educational technology, a simple charger can make a big difference in academic success.
