Boosting Enrichment Class With a Color Printer and Snacks

Funded Apr 3, 2024

Having a colored printer and snacks during testing has significantly impacted how students engage with their learning materials. By incorporating technology, particularly the use of the color printer, students had access to more visually engaging and clear resources. This has improved their comprehension and retention, especially for visual learners. Whether colorful charts, diagrams, or creative assignments, high-quality color prints bring the material to life in ways that traditional black-and-white copies can't.

What excites students the most is seeing their work or study materials in full color. They enjoy seeing how their projects, artwork, and presentations come to life, which motivates them to put more effort into their work. The color printer allows for more creativity in assignments and provides students with more professional-looking outputs, which increases their pride and confidence in their work.

In addition, the snacks provided as part of the project have positively impacted student morale and engagement. The availability of snacks creates a more comfortable and welcoming environment, making students feel more supported. It's a small but meaningful incentive that helps them stay focused and energized, particularly during long testing sessions. Our scores increased in math, and I believe it was due to the support of the students who needed the energy from the snacks.

This combination of advanced technology and thoughtful support helps create a more stimulating and productive learning environment for the students.”
