Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

We will offer courses-specific gaming classes to create a structured environment for students to improve their gaming abilities, strategy and problem-solving techniques, and socialization skills, and potentially pursue career opportunities in the gaming industry. This Xbox will aid in fostering communication and collaboration among our students.

Our gaming courses will offer a dynamic and interactive approach to education that will complement our traditional teaching methods to improve student outcomes across various domains.

Gaming offers an advanced approach to develop and play through aspects of computer science, software engineering, and hardware design.

Ms. Brisco
Grades 9-12
