It may not be clear how these items will serve my students but they are absolutely necessary. Each item allows me to provide my Spanish students with a TON of comprehensible input! Comprehensible input is what leading language experts declare as NECESSARY to learn a foreign language. The Elgato Cam Link will allow me to stream a touchpad whiteboard, which is a huge improvement over using a mouse or trackpad. The green screen will allow me to be a fixture inside of my Powerpoints, allowing me to point to objects or words as I say them in Spanish, helping to convey meaning. Since having a clear voice, and clear audio of my students' speech are important in communication, ESPECIALLY in a foreign language, the AirPods will give students the ability to hear and be heard clearly, while being able to move around.
