Throughout Distance Learning, I have been trying my best to communicate with students through any means of communication. Most teachers, like me, are using online platforms, to keep up with many of our students. However, my goal has always been to reach all of my learners, no matter how challenging it may be. Many of my students' families are struggling to pay bills, therefore losing touch with me for reasons no student should have to struggle with: whether it is watching younger siblings all day, having spotty internet, if they are lucky to, or being able to process how to transition to these online platforms. This two- in- one laptop and tablet will help me better keep in contact with my students and provide rich, fun, and engaging lessons that they all deserve. I have done much research and engaging my students in any way possible now, whether with teaching content or just socially- emotionally has lasting impacts for many years to come. With this piece of technology, it will make it much easier to create videos to send to my students that don't have internet access for them to watch at their own convenience. It will allow me play fun, interactive games like Kahoot with those who are able to get online in order to engage them more during this difficult time. Finally, it will allow me to teach them through video conferencing and be able to annotate both my screen and their screens to better help them understand the geometry concepts that they were already struggling with when we were in the classroom and I had many more tools to help differentiate.
