Your generosity is giving our CTE biomedical students an opportunity to develop skills that reach far beyond the classroom and prepare them for success in college, careers, and life.\r\n\r\nAs biomedical students, our learners spend a great deal of time developing technical knowledge and exploring careers in health science. Through this podcasting project, they are also learning how to communicate that knowledge with confidence, creativity, and purpose. Your support has helped create opportunities for students to step outside of their comfort zones and discover that their voices and ideas have value.\r\n\r\nPodcasting may seem like simply talking into a microphone, but for our students, it is so much more. They are practicing communication, collaboration, research, critical thinking, problem-solving, creativity, and professionalism—all essential transferable skills in the biomedical field and virtually every career pathway.","fullyFundedDate":1778250916807,"projectUrl":"project/help-our-students-find-their-voice-throu/10262665/","projectTitle":"Help Our Students Find Their Voice Through Podcasting","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. S","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7860673_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1715390127371","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7860673"},{"teacherId":7860673,"projectId":10203067,"letterContent":"With these new hot plates, students can engage in more hands-on laboratory experiences that connect what they learn in class to the real world.
