These innovative devices have opened new opportunities for students to refine their skills, learn advanced control techniques, and compete on a more even playing field. Many of our students had previously struggled with traditional controllers due to ergonomic challenges or slower input times, but the leverless design has allowed them to play more comfortably and efficiently. This technology has become a valuable teaching tool, helping students understand the importance of precision, adaptability, and accessibility in competitive gaming.\r\n\r\nThe excitement around these new controllers was immediate. Students were eager to test them out, comparing input speeds and experimenting with new strategies. One student, who had difficulty mastering traditional joystick movements, quickly adapted to the leverless layout and has since become one of our top performers. Seeing that student's confidence grow has been one of the most rewarding outcomes of this project. The controllers have also sparked discussions about inclusivity in gaming technology, inspiring students to think critically about how design can impact performance and accessibility.\r\n\r\nThese new tools have enhanced both practice sessions and classroom lessons, allowing students to analyze gameplay mechanics in greater depth. As our teams prepare for upcoming tournaments, the leverless controllers are helping them compete more effectively and with greater confidence. Your support has not only improved our equipment but has also empowered our students to learn, adapt, and excel in ways that were previously out of reach. Thank you for helping us truly level the playing field.","fullyFundedDate":1757088182818,"projectUrl":"project/leveling-the-playing-field-leverless-co/9674455/","projectTitle":"Leveling the Playing Field: Leverless Controllers for Esports","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Delgado","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp709714_orig.jpg?crop=4000,4000,x1480,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1723322192123","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/709714"},{"teacherId":709714,"projectId":9707825,"letterContent":"Thanks to your generous support, our esports lab has undergone a major transformation with the addition of larger tables and a proper media console.

When students first walked into the upgraded space, their reactions were priceless—cheers, wide smiles, and immediate excitement to start setting up their stations. It was clear that they felt a renewed sense of pride and ownership in their learning environment.\r\n\r\nThe new media console has also become a central hub for our lessons and team reviews. We recently completed a project where students analyzed recorded gameplay to identify strategies and communication patterns. With the improved setup, we were able to display multiple perspectives simultaneously, making discussions more interactive and insightful.

The iPad has become an essential learning hub during our rotating station activities—helping students collaborate, research, and dive deeper into the key themes and historical thinking skills that the AP curriculum emphasizes.\r\n\r\nWhat excites my students most is how this technology allows them to take ownership of their learning.
