Technology for Finance Students

Funded Oct 3, 2018

Thank you for providing a Surface Go for use in our classroom. My Finance students and I are very enthusiastic about the opportunity to conduct real time research about the stock market. Students have been working in teams to track the performance of certain stocks selected by members of each team.

Students have used the technology to perform various tasks such as research, data entry, and presentation. The data manager for each team is responsible for creating an Excel spreadsheet to track the daily performance of stocks selected by the team. Students take turns reporting on the "Stock Pick" for the week. Team members also collaborate on a poster board with information pertaining to the stocks in their portfolio.

I am very impressed with my students' ability to understand how the stock market works in such a very short time! Thank you for supporting the educational development of my students.”
