My Project

I am a Special Education teacher at the same time a reading and math teacher catering students with Non-Categorical Developmental Delay, and students with Specific Learning Disability. Everyday, my students and I use a laptop in our daily lessons and activities. I also use it to make worksheets and present lessons in our smartboard.

I want to make my students' learning experience fun, productive, and knowledge sufficient.

However, my current laptop is old, and experiencing defects that affected my students attention and focus as they are distracted every time the laptop glitches; they are disturbed and behavior occurs - disrupting a productive lesson, and putting learning at stake, as a result.

With a new high-quality, portable laptop, work will be easy and speedy, lessons will not be disrupted, and students will not be distracted. Students can focus more, and pay attention to discussion. They can participate and access to the activities without worrying about lagging, glitches, and laptop turning off by itself in the middle of the activity.

With smooth, continuous discussion and presentation, learning is guaranteed, behavior is controlled, and students get to be engaged. Lastly, as most of my students' disabilities are comorbid with ADHD, having a very reliable laptop is a must. As no glitch, no disruption will help my students in full attention to the lessons.
