Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

As a tech class, we focus on how to improve the world through technology. Solving the world’s problems. The class is developing a podcast for the junior IT Shop students that will expand their Adobe Cloud expertise and technical skills producing an IT Shop Podcast. The monitor, mic, and ring light are some of the missing items to complete this project. The mental health of the students tends to improve when they create friendly and informative podcasts. The podcast gives them a voice, and that their voice matters.

Thank you for your donation and help improving student success!
