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.
I am constantly amazed by my students' desire to learn and the amount of determination they have to succeed. One of the best ways I have found to provide for all of my students' diverse needs is hands-on learning and technology integration. Technology is able to bring to life many of the abstract concepts that my students are learning about and allows them to interact with a concept, instead of merely reading about it.
We have great parental support in the area of academics, but many of our parents struggle financially.
We are called a Comprehensive High School which includes a Cosmetology program, Auto Mechanic program, and a Culinary program in addition to the traditional academic programs.
Students who are actively engaged are able to learn more and at a deeper level. Technology allows us to tailor education to meet the educational and cultural needs of the students. Our wonderful students have a real thirst to learn, which is so very refreshing.
My Project
One of the challenges of teaching both in-person and online students simultaneously is being tied to your desk. This stand will allow me to bring both of my screens with me through the classroom and salon so that all students have a chance to experience the lesson. The wireless mic will ensure that I am heard above the bustle of the salon and the adapter will ensure that no matter what tech I am provided I can use it to its fullest extent.
By being able to easily transport my link to those students at home they will have the same opportunities to see themselves the way I already see them.
I am lucky that I have the opportunity in cosmetology not only to dispel myths and prejudices but give students the opportunity to see themselves and their culture reflected and celebrated for its unique beauty.
