Two Screens!

Funded Nov 10, 2020

Having a second screen has made such a positive impact on my remote teaching. Much of my time teaching I am sharing one of my screens with the class. Whether we are analyzing a document, watching a video clip, sharing student work, etc., when this screen is being shared I am unable to use that screen for any other function.

A second screen allows me to do so much while simultaneously sharing a separate screen with students. I've found that my ability to reference personal notes around the lesson and see the full class have been especially impactful. I am also able to complete other responsibilities of the job, including taking attendance, responding to urgent emails and messages from students, etc. I am able to keep the chat box and participant window open without blocking the screen I'm trying to share. The second screen really is so, so helpful.

The second screen makes me a more effective teacher for my students. Student feedback around their experience with my courses this year has been positive and many of the things students are saying they most enjoy- the use of music and videos, discussions, document analysis, etc.- are made possible through the second screen. I am so grateful the screen was donated!”

With gratitude,
