My students need Chromebooks for online research, laboratory and presentation creation, and extended classroom activities. These Chromebooks will give my students the opportunity to use online programs that will simultaneously teach them about science while having fun. They will also provide students access to databases with scientific papers and first-hand research in order to aid their studies and research. In my class, students conduct several long-term science investigations throughout the year (Determining the Best Soil to Grow Lima Beans (chemistry), Looking at the Effect of Soda on Chicken Bones (chemistry); Designing the optimal Straw Rocket (physics). When conducting these experiments, students must design and carry out these experiments. With the Chromebooks, students will be able to do in-depth research in order to design optimal environments, create effective protocols, and work collaboratively, like scientists. Furthermore, once these projects are completed, the students will create research presentations that will be used to share with our school community and represented at local and national exhibitions. These presentations can be enhanced with Chromebooks by giving them access to a plethora of resources. In addition to the science, these chromebooks will give the students the computer skills to help them be successful in highschool, college, and eventually the job market. Being able to operate programs like Microsoft word, excel, power point, google docs, etc. will increase their ability to be successful. As you can see, our classroom is not yet up to par technologically, but with this grant, we will get closer to closing that gap!
