Teachers are able to project workbook pages onto the Promethean screens, and instead of just hearing instructions, students are watching their teacher model problems and annotate text step-by-step. The most exciting part of this technology for our students is that it isn't just used by the teacher- they get to use it, too. Students can step up to the camera, place their paper underneath, and become the teacher for the moment.\r\n\r\nAs one teacher stated, \"I use this valuable tool every day to give students an opportunity to present their work and verbally defend their mathematical thinking. It allows me to assess their understanding while also correcting mathematical notation and vocabulary in real time. Just as importantly, it gives our class a chance to celebrate one another's work and discover different and creative ways to solve problems. Your generosity has made a meaningful difference in how my students learn, communicate, and share mathematics!\" Another math teacher shared, \"It has really boosted engagement and clarity during our guided practice time! Thank you for investing in our students' learning!\"\r\n\r\nBecause of your support, every student in these math classes now has equal access to live demonstrations and a real voice in their own learning.
