My class is a diverse and creative one. This pertains to home life, sociol-economic, cultural, as well as technology know-how. Some students came to me with little or no technology skills. Others have limited skills with keyboard skills, and at first typing up more than a sentence or two seemed like a daunting challenge to them. We try to make it to our single school computer lab on a weekly or bi-weekly basis, but it is under high demand with 16 other classes share it. If we had access to our own classroom Chrome Books, camera and head phones, students could rotate through our classroom media-creation center and type up and/or design their own stories, poetry, presentations or reports. Technology would become part of our daily schedule, rather than weekly or bi-weekly schedule. Thank you for helping us reach our goal!
