I am the educator of lower income, inner city students. These students, like all children, have a thirst for learning, and are capable of doing big things. Unfortunately they come to me ill prepared and underexposed. This is due to a GAP and disparity in the experiences, and exposure that these students are afforded. The children want to be better, but they sometimes start out behind, and their possibilities of catching up seem dismal to most. Well not to me! I attempt to expose them to as much as I can in the time that I am with them. I brought my touchscreen laptop to school to expose the students to it, and to show them the things that you can use it for, and the look in their eyes was priceless. They were beyond amazed. I think experiences like these encourage them to do and be better.
