Projecting into Social Studies

My students need a projector to be able to share projects, videos, photos, and other items that enhance student learning.

My Students

I currently teach all grade levels in my high school ranging from ninth to twelfth grade. Most students are ambitious, hardworking, and really love when technology is used in the classroom both by the teacher and other students. They also have a passion for current events and debate about what is going on weekly.

Learning styles vary throughout my classes.

My students learn more when they can access real life events through technology and we can experience them as a classroom.

My Project

The projector in my classroom has been failing for the last two years. It makes it hard for students to take notes, experience video demonstrations, or share photos of what we are learning in the classroom. Students have had to rely on poster projects rather than to use technology to showcase their work because the lack of a working projector in the classroom.

They have not been able to build up their skills that their counterparts in other districts have had access to.

A working projector is a vital tool that will enhance the learning of each student that is present in my classroom.
