My Students

We are in the year 2016 and our students do not have adequate access to computers or technology. We have two computer labs and one Chromebook cart, for the whole school to use, but they are always reserved. We have one library that can only let a class of twenty-three students use 5 computers at a time, which is not enough. As a science teacher, it is hard to help student prepare for college or a career if they do not have basic knowledge of gathering quality information..

My Project

This is the age of technology, and students love to use technology. As teachers, we need to teach kids in the way they want to learn and that is by using technology. I am requesting 5 Chromebooks in order to complete research, class assignments and simulations. There are endless uses for laptops and my students love to use them. With appropriate instruction, my students will be able to collect quality research, complete assignments digitally, participate in online simulations and learn how to use a computer in the hopes of finding a profession in which they will need to use one.
