My students are eager learners. They are excited about the world and how to apply their knowledge. They are dreamers, thinkers, and they know how to ask questions.
My students want to make the most of every day.
They are constantly asking for ways to expand their knowledge. They want to hear about the world and how it works. They want to be a part of that world and put forth their ideas. They will be productive members of our society.
My Project
How amazing would it be for students to be able to dive into learning...hands-on, engaged, and excited? With Google Expedition kits, students are able to be able to do that! Students can use VR technology to actually see what we are discussing in class to help them understand and grasp what used to be hard-to-grasp concepts. They can actually see historical people, places, and events. They can actually witness hard to understand scientific concepts.
In social studies we are required to learn about the world but it's hard because the kids can't see it, experience what it's like to be in another country and another culture.
I want to make this possible for students to be immersed in their learning, literally.
With this DonorsChoose project, students will receive:
VR 1 Student Kit
• 30 student devices
• 30 virtual reality viewers
• 1 360° camera
• 1 rapid charger
• 1 teacher device
• 1 router
• 1 case or charging cart
This is not a project I am wanting to keep for just my classroom, but for the whole school to use. This way every student in our school has access.
