This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
My students are our future presidents, inventors, business owners, parents, and most of stivers for 5.
My students are within the Special Education Curriculum of Occupational Course of Study.
These students will have to complete 600 hours of Occupational Course of Study hours that are state required to obtain a high school diploma. This consist of 150 hours of school based work hours on campus, 225 volunteer community hours, and 225 hours of non-paid vocational training ( on the job training) or paid working hours. While receiving or working these hours students are able to have a hand over hand work experience of what it feels like to work in the workplace setting.
My Project
My students will be able to record themselves for their portfolios to be presented for their senior year. Students will be able to edit their recordings if needed to improve for public speaking. Tablets will also allow students to record themselves in job interviews to see their body language and correct errors if needed. Tablets can be used in group activities and classroom sessions.
I teach a student that is blind and have a hearing loss, so having a tablet that's has touch screen capability to access sound and vision allows my student to be able to touch and hear sounds by touch.
This capability will allow me to be able to download apps to assist the student in learning.
