Tech Refresh-Updating Chromebooks

Help me give my students a "refresh" of technology tools. Many of our Chromebooks have reached their end of life for updates and functionality (we've been able to get 5 years of use!)

My Project

My classroom pulses with unique learning energy. My students are a diverse group with varying learning styles and paces. They are digital natives, curious and tech-savvy, but our current Chromebooks are outdated, hindering their potential. We've been able to get 5 years of use out of our Chromebooks but they are showing their age and reaching the end of their updates. Upgraded Chromebooks would be transformative, directly impacting their learning in several ways.

The faster processors of newer models will eliminate frustrating lag times, allowing for seamless engagement with online learning platforms.

Currently, slow loading speeds disrupt the flow of lessons, especially when using interactive tools or multimedia resources. This upgrade will mean more time spent learning and less time waiting. Larger storage capacity will also be crucial, allowing students to save their work, projects, and research without fear of running out of space. This is particularly important for students working on long-term projects or building digital portfolios.

My goals for this project are threefold. First, to create a more engaging and interactive learning environment. Second, equip my students with digital skills to succeed. Finally, to personalize learning, allowing students to progress at their own pace and explore their interests.

What makes my students special is their resilience and their unwavering enthusiasm for learning, even in the face of challenges. Many come from disadvantaged backgrounds, and access to technology at home is limited. For them, the Chromebooks in my classroom are often their primary gateway to the digital world. Providing them with updated devices will not only enhance their academic experience but also bridge the digital divide, giving them equal opportunities to succeed. These students deserve access to the best tools available, and I am confident that these updated Chromebooks will empower them to reach their full potential.

Mr. Harvey will only receive his materials if this project is fully funded by June 4.
