Need Ext. Storage HD to Save Student Writing/Project Data
My students need external harddrive storage space for our research projects data, writing assignments, presentations data, and my own comprehensive lesson plans, we have old computers.
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Ybarra's classroom raised $245
This project is fully funded
My Students
My students are good writers, researchers, and presenters because they love it. Our old computers have small hard drives and therefore, cannot save many projects on our current systems. I want a large external hard drive storage system that would allow my students to post all their work in one HD.
My students are good writers, researchers, and presenters because they love doing it.
I want my students to achieve their best in every assignment. I want them to reach their full potential in life by supporting their learning goals and desire for knowledge. I became a military pilot through sheer desire and my thirst for knowledge. I model this desire for knowledge and self-improvement in my students, everyday! They appreciate it and show me they approve by performing well in all they do. I want to support them!
I have achieved much in my life as a retired military pilot and now, as a teacher, I proudly serve again in the classroom. Your donation will allow my students to step up and excel once again, at their usual awesome level! They say that Einstein was a problem student in middle school, but look at what he achieved. My students are so smart and well behaved, imagine what they will be able to achieve with the right technological equipment in the classroom. Thank you in advance.
My Project
With a large external hard drive, I plan on setting up a 'Microsoft Cloud' storage account where students and I will be able to send homework, research data, presentation data back and forth via their student email accounts. This allows me to make suggestions and corrections on their work then, reload their work back onto the Cloud database. Students then can access their projects and make the necessary corrections onto their final papers, projects, and presentations. This follows our 'writing process' guidelines from our district, a very successful approach to teaching writing skills.
This external hard drive storage system will allow my students to save their all their writing data, research data (including pictures), presentations data, and my own expansive lesson plans in one location where it will be accessible for all my students.
Our classroom computers are dinosaurs and have no storage capacity. I would like to replace them with laptops one day!
