Using tablets, students can work in their groups to do translations, and study documents and resources in their chosen language. A variety of languages are spoken in the classroom, with students coming in throughout the year. Additionally, I am one of the lead teachers for NYCDOE's new Civics for All Initiative. Students can use these tablets to access Civics-based resources used to empower students to get involved in their community and feel they have a voice. For example, Checkology is a News Literacy Resource used to teacher students how to recognize fake news and responsible journalism. Students can also used these to help conduct research for Project Soapbox, a national competition where students can make speeches about topics and issues important to them.
