Turn Our IPad into a Document Camera!

My students need a document camera stand and connector to help our class turn our IPad into a document camera so that we can see and share our work with the entire class!

My Students

Can you imagine learning a concept but not being able to see it? Help us display our work and learning with a document camera stand that will allow us to turn our IPad into a camera. This stand will allow our work to be displayed for the whole class to see and interact with on the board!

This document camera stand and connector will greatly benefit the learning of my first graders who come from a variety of backgrounds in a rural area in Pennsylvania.

First grade is such an important time of learning and growth--my students come eager and excited to learn every day! Technology is a great and highly motivating tool to use in education and it's amazing how engaged my students are when we use technology to learn!

My Project

Document cameras are wonderful tools, but are also quite expensive. So when I was conducting research on document cameras I was very excited to find out that I could turn our classroom IPad into a document camera for a fraction of the cost!! This document stand will be used during lessons for teaching concepts through demonstrations and it will allow the entire class to interact with stories, student work, and information that they would not be able to see without the projection of a document camera onto our board. Students learn best through seeing and doing: this document camera stand and cords will allow them to do both!! How exciting is that!

Your donation will help our class be able to all participate in our learning together!

Thank you for helping us get the stand so that we can utilize the technology that we already have in our classroom even better by using the IPad as a document camera!
