My Students

As a teacher at a Title I school, my students are faced with far more challenges than I ever was growing up. Many of our students come from low-income households, are new to the English language, manage great home responsibilities, struggle with food insecurity, and are confronted with peer-group tensions related to social hierarchies.

I feel fortunate to be able to teach digital art, a subject I am passionate about which is also a powerful outlet for personal expression and creativity to my students.

My Project

Last year I began implementing the "Modern Classroom" format in my classroom to better address new challenges presented by the pandemic such as chronic absenteeism. The "Modern Classroom" model is blended, self-paced, and mastery-based. Students access blended instruction via teacher-created instructional videos allowing students to work at their own pace, eliminate or minimize learning loss after an absence, and free the teacher to work with students individually.

Earbuds are essential to this model so students can access the audio on instructional videos as each student progresses at their own pace.

This year I have fully implemented the model and it has been rewarding to see students empowered to take control of their learning. As a teacher I feel empowered as I am able to offer more individual student support and connect with students more than ever before.
