Distance learning can be difficult to navigate for students and add the inability to perform live. It is incredibly disappointing and frustrating for my fine arts students. To ensure that they have amazingly high-quality videos, and the ability to produce beautiful virtual performances, updated technology is a necessity. I am humbly requesting an updated iPad, that has the capability of faster streaming, and more enhanced music editing software. This device will be used as a springboard to initiate the ability to have vastly improved technology integrated virtual performances. Updated technology is critical, as most platforms require specific process demands. Which the current technology is unable to accommodate. Ensuring that my students feel successful and proud of their work, is a top priority for me. They want to perform and be heard!
