My Students

Every day, my classroom is filled with students eager to learn. When my students walk into our class, they know that they should be prepared to learn by DOING. My students build electronic circuits and analyze the properties of those circuits using professional techniques.

Our classroom is a place of escape; a place where we can come to explore the world of electronics in ways normally inaccessible to my students.

A majority--almost 90%--of my students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunches and more than 90% of my students are African American or Latino/a. Many of them cannot imagine working as a professional in a technology-oriented field. Yet, when I watch them at work, I see electricians, researchers, writers, electrical engineers, software programmers, and lab technicians. My hope for them is that through our work they, too, will begin to see themselves in those roles.

My Project

My course is designed around technology. Whether it is being used to build something, take pictures, research on the internet, or collaborate with classmates, my students need to use technology every day to be successful.

However, not all of my students have access to their own technology.

Furthermore, the Chromebooks that they use are often limited in functionality and out of date. Purchasing these tablets will allow me to put one at each desk for groups to share throughout the class. They can then use them to take pictures of projects, do research, and collaborate.
