My Students

In our small rural town, the majority of my students come from poor homes. Generally, their parents are poorly educated and, for some of my students, school is the most positive one-on-one adult interaction they receive. Their backgrounds are very diverse so some come eager to learn and some come with low expectations based on past learning experiences. Every day it is my goal to introduce them to something new in the world of science.

Due to the high poverty in our area, school funds are tight and my students are handicapped by the lack of technology available in their classrooms.

A basic technology such as computers can open up a whole new world of educational opportunities they might not have otherwise.

My Project

Education builds good communities. Having ready access to basic technology like these Chromebooks in the classroom would encourage my students to explore science topics and spark a greater interest in their science education.

Creativity is stifled when a student has limited access to technology basics, like computers.

Most of their projects and assignments must be done in groups due to the need to share computers. This in itself reduces the quality of their work and limits their potential to think outside the box.

Additionally, the skills they learn from researching and writing will not only improve their literacy skills, but may lead to education options that they may have not considered.
