• World Wide Web to the Rescue!

  Funded Dec 4, 2024

  Thank you so much for your generous support. The technology you've helped provide is making a huge difference in my students' learning. With the new tools, students have more interactive and personalized learning experiences, which helps them engage with the material in a way that suits their individual needs. The most exciting feature for them is the ability to work on projects and collaborate with peers through online platforms, giving them a sense of ownership over their learning.

  Particularly, our students with diverse learning needs have embraced the technology. It allows them to access content in multiple formats—whether it's audio, video, or text—making it easier for them to grasp complex concepts. One student, for instance, who struggled with traditional reading assignments, is now thriving using text-to-speech features.

  Thank you again for making this possible!”

  Thank you so much for helping our class get a Qball. The students have enjoyed using it so much. It has promoted voice and cooperation within my classroom.
