MacBook Pro: Engaging Math Lessons During Virtual Learning

Funded Nov 9, 2020

Thank you so much for the generous donation that made it possible for me to fund my MacBook Pro project. During this difficult year due to the pandemic, a lot of my students are struggling to learn from home. That is why I wanted to do my best to create engaging mathematical lessons for my students, and this was not possible without a functional laptop that I am familiar with it.

This Macbook Pro made it possible for me to create and implement lesson plans and activities with the interactive presentation tool Nearpod. Most of my lessons came from this presentation tool. Nearpod allowed students to actively participate during the lessons and show their work when doing problems. While teaching, I was able to monitor my students' progress and was able to pinpoint what topics students might have had difficulties with.

The MacBook Pro made the preparation of these lessons smooth and convenient, which made it more sustainable for me to keep creating and planning them. As a result, I believe my students were able to learn productively even being away from the physical classroom. Thank you again for the funding that made this all possible!”

With gratitude,

Mr. Oh
