Unlocking Classroom Mobility: Printer & Laptop Cart

FULLY FUNDED! Dr. Dykes's classroom raised $309

My Project

The goal of this project is to equip students with essential resources to enhance their learning experience and develop crucial skills. Specifically, the project aims to provide:

A Classroom Printer: This will allow students to easily print assignments and other necessary materials directly in the classroom.

This accessibility can improve efficiency, reduce reliance on external printing resources, and ensure students have physical copies when needed for review, submission, or in-class activities.

A Laptop Cart for Presentations: Providing a dedicated laptop cart will facilitate the use of technology for student presentations. This resource will likely include laptops that students can use, ensuring equitable access to presentation tools. The availability of a laptop cart aims to:

Improve Confidence: By providing reliable technology, students can focus on their content and delivery rather than worrying about technical difficulties.

Enhance Public Speaking Skills: Having access to presentation software and visual aids through the laptops will allow students to create more engaging and effective presentations, providing valuable practice in public speaking.

In essence, this project focuses on bridging the gap between resource availability and student needs, aiming to foster a more supportive and technologically integrated learning environment. The provision of a classroom printer addresses practical needs related to assignment completion, while the laptop cart directly targets the development of essential communication and presentation skills, ultimately boosting student confidence in public speaking scenarios.
