Technology in the Classroom

Funded Mar 5, 2015

In March 2015, I received an iPad Air with an adapter. This resource has benefited me inside and outside the classroom. I have used this technology in professional developments, salary point classes and in the classroom teaching my student. My colleagues and students are quite impressed with my new technology and have seen how it have benefited me tremendously.

I have been using the iPad in a variety of different ways. During professional developments, I have been able to use this technology to take notes and go on the appropriate website. I have even been able to use the iPad as a visual aide when I hosted my own professional development. As a new teacher, I sill need to take salary point classes. In these classes, you are required to use technology to access the content, along with completing the homework Ondine. The iPad has furthered my career by allowing to me be current to use my iPad in professional developments and salary point classes.

The project has also boosted my teaching, which has helped my students' learning. Many times when reading an article, the student have asked what a certain thing looks like, for example, an ice fish or a flying squirrel. So, the iPad has allowed me to provide them with immediate feedback and easily google a picture. I have also used the iPad to show students video to access and provide them with background knowledge before we read the article.

Thank you once again for your generous donation.”
