My Students

I work in a small, country school but with the best students! We are not a 1:1 technology school, but we have a wonderful library media center that tries to provide us with as many resources as it can. Though they are limited, my students make the best of the resources available and never complain. They are flexible and happy to learn to use whatever is offered.

In our Spanish classes, my students love being creative!

They have made several videos in the target language based on their own interests and also assigned projects. They love working with the language in new ways, whether it is re-enacting their favorite movie scenes in Spanish, creating Lucha Libre personas and rivalries, or simply acting out their own self-written telenovelas. They take the assignment and turn it into something amazing.

My Project

The goal of this project is to provide my students with 5 tablets to open up more tech possibilities for them to use the language. There are several ways these tablets will help my students.

Their interests lie in many creative uses of the language, one of which is making videos and clips in Spanish.

Tablets will allow them to film and edit easier as a group and keep track of their progress without being interrupted by availability.

In addition to helping them keep their creative gears going, tablets will also open up a new presentational level for my students. The Lenovo tablets will allow them to explore different Spanish cultures through web quests, virtual field trips, and group presentations.

Apart from the research experiences, the tablets will also allow my students to have new ways to engage in language activities. Whether it is viewing an educational telenovela for listening interpretation or working as a team to compete in online, interactive vocabulary and grammar challenges, these tablets will greatly enhance the education of my students.
