My Project

In our world today, classrooms and students are rapidly changing. A primary factor in this change is technology. While many think that technology in the classroom and our world is a bad thing, I believe that technology can open up a new world for our students.

Having an iPad in my classroom will help me to engage with my students better while I am teaching.

While students have district-provided devices, this does not change my ability to be as physically present and mobile within the classroom. In fact, while I have a Promethean Board to display notes and materials on, I am restricted to the front of the room to operate it, meaning I am unable to be mobile in a class of 25-30 students. By having an iPad, I would be able to be mobile within my class and still operate/display notes, annotations, etc. in real time from anywhere in my room. This would also allow me to hand off the iPad to students to write student examples from the comfort of their desk and so much more. Further, iPads provide an overwhelming amount of accessibility tools to make my classroom a more equitable and inclusive learning environment.

My goal is to be able to make the classroom a more one-on-one environment despite the larger class sizes we are seeing today. My classes are incredibly diverse at Fairforest Middle School, and my students need my presence in an accessible, inclusive, and equitable way. Please consider supporting my students by supporting me in my goal to provide these life-changing classroom characteristics by donating toward this project for an iPad and necessary accessories (Apple Pencil and iPad Case).
