See Physics In Action!

Funded Oct 14, 2010

Thank you so much for contributing to this project to get a digital projector for my students in the classroom! Since we received the projector, we've used it in many different ways to facilitate student learning and growth. Students have used the projector to present their lab findings for the whole class and for Jeopardy review games. I have used the projector to show college-style PowerPoint lectures on new material to help my students learn to take notes efficiently, to show demonstrations of free fall on the Moon, and to demonstrate to my students how to use an online simulation of projectile motion that they could then experiment with on their own. None of this, or countless more activities I have planned, would be possible without access to this resource that you have helped to provide for my students.

The technology of a digital projector, and all the other resources that are available to use in conjunction with the projector, has helped bring physics to life for my students and increased their engagement with and understanding of the material. Without Donors Choose, and all your donations, my students would not have access to the resources I can use with them and demonstrate for them on the projector, and they would not be able to practice their presentation skills.”

With gratitude,
