The students at our school have weekly tests that they take on the computer. Students have the ability to practice for these tests during the week on their home accounts, but since many of my students don't have computers, they are unable to practice. Having an extra iPad in my room would help these students practice during the week while at school so that they have the same advantages as the students who do have computers at home. My students need an extra iPad for the classroom to do their weekly assigned online assessments. My students will be able to practice and work toward receiving passing grades on their weekly assessments. My students who do not get to experience technology at home will be able to use this iPad to receive this practice time as well. The iPad is accessible and easy to navigate so that they can learn independence and work towards their continued success in the classroom. Students can also use the different apps for music recording and video editing to further enhance their technological skills.
