Power Struggles

My Project

Many of my students across all grade levels have either lost or misplaced their original Chromebook chargers. This leaves them without the ability to power up their devices. Chargers are just as important as the Chromebook itself. In fact, they go hand in hand.

Access to technology is a key factor in promoting inclusivity in education.

Having chargers readily available ensures that students are not hindered in their academic pursuits due to a lack of power. It also reduces the risk of disruptions in class due to students forgetting or losing their chargers. I plan to use the Chromebook chargers to charge the class set of Chromebooks for each class so that my students can stay connected and engaged.
