As an International Baccalaureate Magnet Program, our Middle Years Program (MYP) curriculum helps students develop the skills needed to be "socially responsible contributors to a changing global society." A capstone project of the MYP is the Community Project, in which students investigate an issue facing our school, local, national, or global community and design an action to address a component of that issue. Students talk to primary sources, design and redesign action plans, and reflect on the impact their project has had on themselves and on others. This project is presented to the community at a Community Project Showcase at our local IB high school, for which they create engaging presentations that include key elements of the project and call audience members to action in order to promote a collective positive impact on the world. Community Projects have led to permanent improvements within our school community, including the installation of water bottle fill-up stations, a Bike to School Day, and more. Students take these projects seriously; therefore we want to equip them with the presentation tools to make a serious impact on their audience. Wireless presentation clickers are a small tool that would make a big impact. These will free students up to move around a room during a presentation instead of remaining tied to a device, helping them make connections with audience members and reinforce the emotional appeal of their words. They will gain flexibility in presentation format so they will no longer have to rely on a stagnant, text-heavy PowerPoint. It will allow them to use visual imagery and real-life demonstrations to underscore the important information they share during their presentations. Most importantly, it will free students up to focus on the content and communication of their ideas rather than worry about running over to change slides!
