When students were learning remotely and then transitioning back to the classroom, technology became an important part of helping them stay connected, engaged, and comfortable with learning. The iPad has allowed me to provide students with interactive lessons, videos, educational apps, and digital resources that help make learning more accessible and engaging.\r\n\r\nMy students especially enjoy having opportunities to use technology in ways that make learning feel more hands-on and relevant to their everyday lives. The iPad allows me to meet students where they are and provide additional support when they need it, whether that means demonstrating a concept visually, helping a student who needs extra practice, or giving students another way to show what they have learned. Students who may be hesitant to participate in traditional classroom activities often become more engaged when technology is incorporated into the lesson.\r\n\r\nMost importantly, this iPad has helped me create a more flexible and supportive learning environment for my students. The effects of COVID-19 on education continue to be felt, and having reliable technology helps me address different learning needs while building students' confidence and digital skills. I am grateful to the donors who made this possible and who continue to believe in my students and their ability to learn, grow, and succeed.","fullyFundedDate":1622891750583,"projectUrl":"project/better-instruction-for-urban-kids/5449432/","projectTitle":"Better Instruction for Urban Kids!","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Jan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7782198_orig.jpg?crop=288,288,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1697033712861","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrjansclass"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_121153","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":null,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":73,"percentAsian":6,"percentBlack":49,"percentWhite":17,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":14,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":8,"gradesServed":"Not specified","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR District Record","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"UNCLASSIFIED","ncesMetroType":null},"inStateSupporters":67.9,"schoolId":121153,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Syracuse Academy of Science - Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Syracuse Academy of Science - Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/syracuse-city-school-district/syracuse-academy-of-science-middle-school/121153"}
