Celebrating 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 Project
My students lack access to new technology. This hinders their ability to keep up with children in schools with more money to spend on their students.
Using a MacBook Air for creative projects in our classroom will give my students the chance to use new technology and build upon their knowledge in new and exciting ways.
My goal is to give my students access to MacBooks support collaboration through tools like Google Workspace (formerly G Suite), Microsoft Office 365, and cloud storage solutions like iCloud and Dropbox. Students can collaborate on group projects, share documents, and communicate with classmates and teachers in real-time, regardless of their physical location.
