Help me give my students video recorded math lessons for our new curriculum next year on a new iPad. This will allow students who are absent to still participate, as well as review homework.

My Project
My students are bright and capable, but like many, they sometimes struggle with grasping new math concepts. To bridge this gap and provide consistent support, I'm requesting an iPad to create dynamic video lessons of our new math curriculum. These videos will not only cover the core lessons but also provide detailed walkthroughs of homework assignments and serve as catch-up lessons for absent students. I currently have over 100 hours of videos for my students on YouTube, but it is based around our old curriculum.
The iPad will be a versatile tool for personalized learning.
By recording lessons, I can provide visual, step-by-step explanations of complex math concepts. Annotating homework problems directly on the screen will offer targeted support, clarifying common misconceptions and reinforcing correct procedures. For absent students, these video lessons will ensure they don't fall behind, providing access to the same instruction as their classmates. This technology allows for flexible learning, enabling students to review material at their own pace and in a way that best suits their individual needs.
My primary goal is to foster a deeper understanding of math for all my students. I want to create a comprehensive library of video resources that empower students to learn independently and build confidence in their math abilities. By providing clear, accessible explanations of both lessons and homework, I aim to reduce frustration and increase engagement. Furthermore, I want to ensure that no student misses out on essential instruction due to absence, promoting equitable access to education.
My students are incredibly determined and resilient. They face various challenges but consistently demonstrate a willingness to learn and grow. They're a diverse group with unique strengths and learning styles, and they deserve access to resources that cater to their individual needs.
