My Students

Spanish language learners from grades 9-12. We are a semi-rural school district about 30 minutes south of Milwaukee. We are a high school of around 600 students. About half of our students attend a 4 year college after graduation while many other students receive additional education in trade fields. Students in the district have had a strong affinity in learning to speak, comprehend, and write in Spanish as we have some of the highest AP Spanish Language and Culture scores in the state of Wisconsin.

My Project

Why Chromebooks?

Chromebooks are cloud-based, constructed to run exclusively by browser, with no installations on the computer.

This unique design allows zero accessible networks to be attacked. Chromebooks do not require active firewalls, or anti- virus and anti-malware software. Filesystem encryption is not necessary as only identified users can view files.

Chromebooks are lightweight, portable, boot up in seconds, and batteries last approximately eight hours. The books automatically update in the background and are always current. Schools control user access to Chromebooks, and can be designated for faculty, students, specific grades or subjects. Apps are selected which can be pre-installed, accessible, or blocked. Educators can view usage and configuration reports for individual students or faculty.

Schools have the option of filtering and monitoring mail, and internet content. If anyone has a problem using Chromebooks or GAFE, support is available twenty-four hours a day/seven days a week, online, by email, by chat, or phone. Chromebooks enhance student communication and collaboration opportunities. Gmail, calendars, and video conferencing all allow students to connect with others, and keep abreast of assignments. Chromebooks allow students to work together while completing group projects, reports, a power point, or videos. Access to work can be attained during school areas, in the library, or at home.

There is no limit on the number of users that can be included on GAFE, and since the Apps are attached to user profiles, Chromebooks can be used by different students. Every student has their own personalized profile, and learning experience, when they log in to their apps, settings, classwork, books, and videos.
