My Project

Technology is really important to a students' education. We, as a class, use it every single day. I always use my desktop to project notes, model things, and give students directions. Since my desktop is essential to my everyday lessons, I'm stuck behind my desk and limited to how far wires can reach. For months, I have looked into different ways to get out from behind my desk and I think I have found a way.

I need a rolling desk that is tall enough and a way to be connected to my smart TV without wires, which means going wireless.

Helping me get a rolling desk and wireless HDMI will allow me to be more mobile in my classroom. I will no longer have to be sitting behind my desk. I can interact with my students more. My students will be allowed to use the desk when they present. They use it to talk through questions. I have looked for all kind of solutions, I'm rearranging my desk and student desks. I've tried screen casting.

I think this is the best solution to my problem. This will allow both me and my students the opportunity to get out from of our seats.
