My Students

One of the many things my students love about my class is that it is a full hands-on experience in the sciences. But with COVID-19 bringing my students into remote learning, I am looking to give my students as complete of an experience at home while I am teaching class and science labs in my science classroom.

Because of COVID-19, and moving to remote learning, I have recently gotten myself a Swivl CX3 robot to help record myself but this Swivl is in need of an iPad to go along with it so that it can work to it's fullest capacity and keep my hard working students fully engaged at home while also getting as close to an in-person learning experience that I can provide in a remote setting.

My Project

With teaching and learning going to remote due to COVID-19, I have recently gotten myself a Swivl CX3 robot to track myself in the science classroom and lab, but need a tablet that this robot uses to record me and communicate with my remote students. This Swivl robot is a vital resource for my online/remote teaching, but I need this iPad tablet so that my Swivl can work completely.

The i-Pad tablet is what Swivl uses to record me, upload my live feed to students, and then allows me to interact with all of my students like they were sitting right in my classroom while I teach.
