Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

My Biology students live in Miami Dade county & come from a myriad of ethnic backgrounds. Our community is diverse. My students are mostly new incoming 9th grade high school students with a few 10th grade students. Most of our school population is from the Homestead, Fl. area. It is a low income and high immigrant city.

My students are tech savvy and hungry for new educational technology & engagement.

Many of my students receive exposure to technology at school and not at home. Resources are not often found in the household due to the lower economic conditions found in many areas surrounding our school.

Most students will be provided with a tablet due to our district transition to the BYOD (bring your own device) initiative. Some students may have their own tablets & devices as well. There may be students who do not have Internet at home and it's my job to saturate their learning environment with fun, thought provoking & engaging activities. These kids should be able to come into the class and leave inspired to grow and learn more about our ever changing world and themselves.

My Project

Your donations to this project will allow me to receive 30 pairs of 3D Virtual Reality VR glasses that will be used for each of my Biology classes. My class is usually 30 kids at a time. They will be immersed in 3D tours of the cell, the plant and the human body just to name a few.

With the use of these 3D VR glasses, lessons that were formerly hard to understand because the content is abstract and difficult, can now be mastered by becoming visually available to my students through the use of this tech.

These VR lessons that can only be experienced with 3D-VR glasses such as these that will help them master content with the use of an amazing technology. These 3D lessons will be fun, will engage them and will push the envelope when it comes to learning in STEM.
