Students in my class are always asking questions and wondering more about topics we learn about, or their own topics of study. We need more access to technology to research these questions to satisfy their inquiries. "How can we research this question?," is my response to their questions, and they always answer, "ON THE COMPUTER!" We don't always have this option, and have to table the question for a later time. I would love to have a research station in my classroom for students to be able to have Chromebooks to research to their hearts' content. I would also like to be able to use the document camera to display student work, and also use it for teacher modeling.
