My Students

My students are amazing innovators who experience their world thru a technology enhanced reality. Our class is a semester long introduction to Computer Science, including; coding, problem solving and process design course. This class is an elective course that is designed to expand students' ability to interface with computers and develop collaboration/teamwork skills.

We endeavor to challenge middle schoolers to expand their concept of technology beyond their smart phone or computer, we introduce them to game theory and app design to expand their ability to see why we are compelled to play/use our screens, and to inspire them to not only play video games/consume applications but create them as well.

For some students this course is their first experience programming, while other students bring years of coding experience to the classroom which creates unique opportunities for students to use teamwork to solve challenges or rethink solutions. Having a wide diversity of backgrounds and skills leads my students to produce a range of novel solutions to the challenges presented to them.

My Project

After many years of faithful service, our trusted keyboards and mice are showing their age; being used by middle schoolers has taken its toll on the lab set of keyboards and mice from missing keys to worn out springs, so it is time for retirement.

In order to focus on creating amazing code and gain computer science expertise, students need reliable tools to craft their projects and practice skills.

This project will help students start class periods by setting them up for success and lowering frustration of having to find a working keyboard/mouse. Logging on can be a tedious process as students manage their school logins/passwords; I have seen students frustrated over trying to type their password only to find out that the caps lock is on but the caps lock light is not functioning or the left shift key does not work. Removing frustrations and stress from aging equipment will help lower students stress and lead to higher student engagement.
