My Project

At my school, we are committed to providing the best possible education, and one powerful tool that can significantly enhance the learning process is a MacBook Pro. We aim to harness the power of technology and create high-quality instructional videos in mathematics that will benefit our students immensely. To achieve this, I am asking for a MacBook Pro, which will enable me to produce engaging and effective educational content that resonates with my students.

Your donation towards the purchase of a MacBook Pro will have a profound impact on our students' educational journey.

The benefits to my students in Algebra 1 to Calculus, will be using the device to project graphs created with Desmos and Calculus in motion, to make the lessons interested and clearer. For example with my algebra 2 students, after teaching about multiple of functions and their graphs,I will project the graphs so students can differentiate between them. In some instances connect the computer to my promethium board so students can draw them. Next, by providing clear, visually appealing, and dynamic explanations, I can make complex math concepts more accessible and engaging for my students. This initiative will not only help them excel in their studies, but also foster a deeper passion for mathematics, a subject that forms the foundation for many future career opportunities. Your contribution will open doors to a brighter academic future for countless students and give them the tools they need to succeed. I will also use the MacBook to update my instructional worksheets and transfer all my files to it, thus giving me a centralized place to house my math materials.
