Enhance Remote Learning for English Language Learners
Funded Nov 20, 2020Thank you for the additional screen, web cam and wireless mouse! It has been a lifesaver during our time at home, remote learning/teaching. The double screen has helped me present information to my students in an engaging way, while being able to see their faces at the same time! It has also limited lag time between activities which has kept my students focused and alert.
My students are so excited that I they are able to see me clearly with the few camera and have mentioned numerous times how much smoother our lessons have gone. Before, I would take time to switch between tabs and our meeting in order to present, participate and read students responses. Now, it is flawless!
Learning remotely is very challenging for my Newcomer ELLs but they adapted better than I could've every hoped for. They proved that persistence pays off! With the addition of the second screen and webcam, it enabled me to plan more engaging activities that allowed the students to participate in numerous ways to express their understanding. Whether they shared their ideas on Flipgrid, Jamboard, or in our Google Meet chat, they attacked the new technology head on.
I will be forever grateful for all of you who donated. You helped us all to persevere and make the best of this unprecedented year.
Thank you from all of us!
Thank you!!!”
