Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
I am constantly amazed by my students' desire to learn and the amount of determination they have to succeed. One of the best ways I have found to provide for all of my students' diverse needs is hands-on learning and technology integration. Technology is able to bring to life many of the abstract concepts that my students are learning about and allows them to interact with a concept, instead of merely reading about it.
We have great parental support in the area of academics, but many of our parents struggle financially.
We are called a Comprehensive High School which includes a Cosmetology program, Auto Mechanic program, and a Culinary program in addition to the traditional academic programs.
Students who are actively engaged are able to learn more and at a deeper level. Technology allows us to tailor education to meet the educational and cultural needs of the students.. Our wonderful students have a real thirst to learn, which is so very refreshing.
My Project
One of the challenges facing my students this year is learning in a hybrid environment with students both in-person and online at the same time. These supplies will allow students to interact with me as the teacher and their classmates in a more meaningful way. The webcam chosen will allow students to see a wide range of both the classroom and the salon allowing them to have a clearer understanding of a very visual curriculum. The conference speaker will allow all students to be heard during classroom discussions so that those in the classroom and those at home can have meaningful conversations. The charging station will allow us to quickly charge and disperse the technology that allows students to work in small groups across learning modalities. The microphone will allow all students to hear my instructions.
I am lucky that I have the opportunity in cosmetology not only to dispel myths and prejudices but give students the opportunity to see themselves and their culture reflected and celebrated for its unique beauty.
