Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

I hope to expose my Baltimore City public school students to technology and computer programming in order to contribute to the district’s Blueprint For Success. This endeavor would be benefited by the use of Smart Technology such as Newline Interactive Display Board. Our technology lab currently has a standard whiteboard and a small projector. I teach computer science to all of the students at our school; grades Pre-K to 8. These students are primarily from economically disadvantaged families. Our children deserve equitable opportunities to learn critical skills in STEM that will allow them to go on and successfully fill one million computer science jobs that go unfilled each year in our country. My students are motivated by our studies of technology and innovation. Learning these problem solving skills while in lower grades will set them up for success in their pathway to the future. My classes learn to use coding languages like Python and Java in order to to operate robotics, design and animate, and create new innovative products. These are desirable career skills that tomorrow’s generation will need to possess. Thank you for your consideration.
