My project attempts to address two issues my students have had in remote learning. The first, affects the students in all their classes- lack of a workstation. Many students are working in shared bedrooms, on couches, in living rooms with multiple siblings, etc. Therefore, a traditional desk is not an option. Having lap desks however, would help them as complete their lessons. The second issue is more specific to my subject: math. In math seeing students' work as they go through each step is crucial. Currently, we have been using interactive slides and whiteboards as they work remotely that allow me to follow along with them. Unfortunately many students struggle with writing on the ipads provided by the schools. Having a stylus would make it much easier to complete lessons. It would be especially useful for my students' who have occupational therapy needs, but all could benefit because so many have said they struggle with writing out equations and drawing diagrams on their screens. For visual learners, this is also important because typing letters and numbers may not be the best way to show their thinking, but drawing with a stylus could reduce frustration when they are trying to represent their solution strategies. My goal is to help students overcome those obstacles which we can control while trying to manage in a pandemic that we can't.
