Shine the Light on Student Work!

Help me give my students the experience of showing their work on a document camera from the Lakeshore Mobile Media Cart. Also, help us with the purchase of a Copernicus Tech Tub2 to secure our laptops at night.

FULLY FUNDED! Dr. Turner's classroom raised $1,242

My Project

The mobile chart will help me as a teacher to secure my laptop at night. Also, it would allow my students and me to use a document camera to model their work or examples to support their learning. The mobile teach cart will allow me to secure and charge some of my computers and move them from one location to another without fear of damaging them.

The goal of this project is for students to model the work they completed at their desks through the document camera on the portable cart.

Students will engage more in the lesson because they are able to showcase what they have done independently or in small groups. The teacher will use the smartboard while the students work on the document camera on the mobile cart to explain what they have done in class.

My students, both in regular and special education, will enjoy the experience of the mobile chart with the document camera. The use of the mobile charging cart will support the high usage of computers in class.
