Equal Access To All Mathematicians
Funded Nov 30, 2022My students are very excited and have gained a lot of knowledge with this iPad. They are using several virtual resources that are a great way to learn by giving my students automatic feedback and tutorial videos that they really need in order to be successful in my class. Many of my students do not have access to this iPad unless I provide it to them. My students and myself hereby thank you and want you to know that this iPad is allowing them to be successful in my class and learn their mathematics with the latest state of the art technology.”

Funded Oct 16, 2019My students and I appreciate your donation from the bottom of our hearts. This product is so exciting to my students. They work on educational software, solving mathematics problems and playing games for fluency with excitement and engaged. They strive to get their answers correct and move on to other tasks.
When taking assessments online, they get automatic feedback as to whether they answered the problem correctly or not. This feedback is essential to students so that they know if they are using the correct procedures and if their thinking is correct or not and know how to correct it before proceeding to the next task.
Some of my students who have always felt that they are just "not good in math" have especially warmed to this technology as they play for fluency and get a green light to move on once they achieve proficiency in a particular topic.”

Funded Oct 10, 2018I can't express the joy I feel having this laptop, which is so useful in my classroom. My students are very excited and enjoy working with it as they learn math. This tool allows my students to learn math like they never have before. The use of this resource allows them to engage in a way they thought they would never see math. As they work on math problems, they are able to get automatic feedback, look up real time data and use resources that are only available through the use of this technology. These students are working in groups as well as individually.
From the bottom of my heard my students and I thank you for giving this tool to them as many of them see math in the classroom from a different point of view. I can see they are engaged and learning.”

Funded Oct 2, 2017I can't fully express my joy, excitement and thank you for your generous donation to my project. It is great to see you share the vision that all students can learn with the proper tools. This apple laptop has been a wonderful tool to engage my students.
The tools that you funded have enabled my students to learn and be engaged and excited to learn mathematics. This great tool is offering my students what no other resource can offer, like getting real time data, automatic feedback, games, etc. I am able to engage them in learning math with this one-of-a-kind, 21st century tool, that allows them to visualize math in many ways with bright colors.
My students and myself appreciate your donation and want you to know how important this laptop is to my students and how it is helping my students succeed.”

Funded Oct 5, 2016Thank you so much for your generous donation. My students are enjoying doing mathematics using this wonderful tool. By the use of this laptop they can access interactive websites that assist them in learning mathematics in a way that no other tool can do. They can work on mathematics problems and get feed back as to whether the answer is correct of not and learn from his/her mistakes on the spot as they solve rigorous math problems.
My students find excitement in using the computer rather than a regular book to learn math. Some of these students do not have access to a computer at home and are very excited to learn math by the use of this laptop.
I have students with learning disabilities and well as students with language barriers that can benefit from differentiated instruction that this laptop can offer. They work on websites that offer individualized instruction depending on their needs. This laptop allows them to work on math and learn math like never before, engaging them with the great resources available by its use.”

Engaging Math Tech
Funded Mar 9, 2016The use of the iPad has caused by students to be excited and enthusiastic about mathematics. By the use of the iPad students find math fun, as they get to play math games. This great resource is making my students look at math in a positive way. By way of this iPad students are working on real life world problems, practicing and taking quizzes, using problems generated by specific websites. My students are much more motivated than they were before they started to use the iPad. They are working in small groups, helping each other and collaborating as they learn rigorous math.”

Funded Oct 6, 2015I can't fully express my joy. Thanks to you my students are enjoying mathematics and learning math using this vibrant, interactive tool. They are working in groups using many websites that have wonderful mathematics resources. They are learning using state of the arts 21st century technology, rather than a book. This has made them be more engaged.
The product is exciting to my students because it is interactive, they can look up real time data and they can use tools and resources that a book does not allow them to use. Some of these students do not have access to a computer at home and they can now use all these mathematics websites and help them be engaged and excited to do mathematics. This laptop is vibrant in color and makes graphs, pictures and everything in general look vibrant and help them visually learn.
There are students that have warmed to this new technology given that they do not have access to it at home. They enjoy doing their math and learning their math using the laptop, rather than using a book, which is what they have at home. They can now visualize mathematics in a way that they were not able to before. Some of my students are ESOL and/or ESE and they can really benefit from visualizing mathematics. I see them succeeding and learning like they did not before.”

Funded Oct 14, 2014I can't express my joy and excitement for receiving your donation. My students were were very happy and excited to be able to use this technology in class. They really get involved and enjoy every minute they are using the computer or the table. These tools have made my students be more interested and excited to do math.
My students are working together in small groups of two or three working on software that I have assigned to them. They have been using iReady , watching videos, using all the math tools that this resource has. This makes them engage in math like they did not do before.
This project has made my students more involved, engaged and excited to do math. They no longer have to use just a book as a resource, they now get to practice math in a computer and even play games that will help them practice and learn mathematics. By the use of these tools my class is more engaging to my students and they motivated to learn.
I thank you for your donation and want you to know that together we are making a difference in these students learning.”

Engaging Math Tech
Funded Dec 5, 2013I can't express my joy. I and my students thank you for your donation. My students are very excited and could not believe that they were going to be able to use tablets in the classroom. They get excited to use them and ask me all the time if they are going to use it again. Some of these students do not have computers at home and have expressed how excited they are to use them here.
We use the tablets in class to look at tutorials such as Algebra Nation and Riverdeep. These are two, among other websites that are educational. Some times students use them individually and some times they share as a group. I have them look at tutorials and answer problems as they go long.
This project has engaged my students in learning and their attitude in my class has changed for the better. They are excited and motivated and it is evident that they understand the material after doing tutorials and using tables much better than before.”
