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
I use this machine every day in class to help them understand the material by putting videos, music, and other effects into my keynotes, which allows the students to comprehend the material better to serve their needs.
My students always comment on how much the lectures help them, especially my English Language Learners and Special Education students, to be able to grasp difficult concepts through visuals and other effects.
My class is usually the only Advanced Placement class many of these students take. This MacBook is essential because it helps them prepare for college and the AP exam.
