I am requesting a MacBook which will help the students create a computer station in the classroom so the students can create mathematical tutorial videos based on class concepts and content. The students consistently show real life videos that they ask to upload for other students around the country. If the students are able to upload real life examples, something they put their energy into, they are more likely to achieve success. One of the major issues that I have is not only do I have a to share computer but often when I get them they are not working.
