My Students

My students are engaged, curious, and seek a challenge. With the uncertainty of this coming school year many are nervous about their ability to be successful. An iPad will allow me to correct their work directly on their document. This would allow them to gain confidence and continue to be challenged.

My Project

With distance and hybrid learning models in place to start the school year this iPad will allow me to give detailed and crucial feedback by being able to write directly on the math work that students submit virtually. I can write and correct on their documents, and they can see the feedback instantly through Google Classroom. Since high school level math work requires showing work and mistakes can happen in various steps this allows for targeted feedback to students. Students will be able to learn from their mistakes more easily.
