The LCD Brings all Technology Together

My students need a new LCD projector to use with our document camera and laptop.

My Students

A projector in the classroom has become as important as a blackboard or books. The LCD in our classroom is now over 8 years old and is overheating.

I teach at a gifted/high ability magnet school.

My students come from diverse ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds. During the school year we not only cover the core curriculum, but also enhance this curriculum with enriching and academically challenging activities.

My Project

The LCD projector has become a vital piece of equipment in our teaching tools. I use it at least three to four times a day to show documents from my document camera or from the laptop. With the LCD, I can share with the entire class worksheets, diagrams, student work, and academic websites. My existing LCD is not able to turn off properly and overheats.

LCD projectors bring all of the technology available to us in the classroom to life.

We can show the entire class what we can see on a single piece of paper or let our students view what we see from the laptop.
