My students need instant feedback and guidance in order to reach the goal of becoming good writers equipped with the complex mind through routinely interactions with the teacher and among peers enhanced via technology. We need Probooks, printer.
My school services children from economic depressed communities. The majority of my students live in poverty. The communities are under-serviced. Many households don’t have power; however, some get limited source of electricity by using solar panels and generators. Currently, our entire student population receives free meals, twice a day, and free transportation back and forth between the school and their homes.
Nevertheless, my students are eager learners.
They come to school with heavy baggage from home, but they would put which aside and enter the learning zone that I provide them with, trying to make the best use of the day.
Regardless how the environment wraps around them like a cocoon, under my guidance, my students would try their best to learn how to break through the confinement, awaiting to turn into beautiful butterflies. For example, after I teach them critical thinking, from understanding to application, they would attempt to use their thinking skills to resolve the issues hindering their schooling and pursing happiness in life. They learn to struggle through their obstacles and move forward one inch at a time. Although the progress is diminutive, my students are patient and determined.
My Project
The computers and printer requested will be used for students to print out work done with the Chromebook in class to enable the teacher to work with them by ways of color coding the feedbacks while explaining and discussions, with the aid of the Elmo and projector.
Good writers come out of consistent learning on how to rethink to revise their writing pieces.
This project will allow students to obtain the instant redirections during the course of writing processes in the modern world, using technological equipments combined with hard copies.
It is also beneficial to the students, in terms of developing the valuable habit of mind, such as useful organization skills, utilizing the resources. In other words, students can actually emerge in a learning environment mixed with traditional and contemporary materials and products that are intertwined into a context that will foster students to become complex thinkers and capable individuals in schools and in life of the 21st century.
