Most of my students are currently sharing district issued laptops with their siblings. To allow my students to continue growing without compromising knowledge gained, they are in need of Samsung Tablets to extend their learning beyond the classroom, without interruptions. Samsung Tablets will allow me to assign age appropriate, web-based learning programs that my students can personalize, save assignments not interfered with by other users, and increase their technology skills. Also a study conducted by Fairlie, R. and Kalil, A. (2013) suggests that students with access to computers have an increase in social skills. This find can greatly benefit my ELL students.
An instructional day in our classroom includes mostly small group instruction. We currently have a few desktop computers in the classroom which is not conducive to small group instruction. Samsung Tablets can provide the opportunity for suitable differentiated lessons, individually assigned activities, and for students to work at their own pace.
With Samsung Tablets used in the classrooms, our students can also enhance their skills in responsibility and writing. We plan to use log sheets for the students to use to record their usage and to explain in their own words, what lesson(s) they’ve worked on. My students have also demonstrated how focused they can be when working on the computer, therefore, Samsung Tablets can increase attention span.
