Funded Nov 2, 2022Thank you for your support these VR sets will offer and provide my students with fun and unique virtual realities activities to learn Science, STEAM and other subjects that will allow them to enjoy a 21st-century learning experience. My students can perform hands-on virtual exercises with extra devices like the Leap Motion sensor controller. VR does not only benefit students but it also has advantages for the workplace.
Virtual reality also can help my students lo learn sciences concept that are difficult to learn simply from a textbook. Take a journey through the human cell or explore the skeletal system in virtual reality. See how the human heart pumps blood throughout the circulatory system.
Additionally, Virtual Reality has the ability for my students to create virtual tours. This creates an advantage for Title I School and students who seek attendance there by getting a glimpse of the University lifestyle. Education and VR go hand in hand.”

Funded Sep 2, 2021Thank your for your support, This semester my students are involved in critical thinking, reasoning, teamwork, investigative, creative and work in the Scratch platform. Coding Drones using Scratch that allow students to be engage in programing. Coding is a basic literacy in the digital age, and students need to understand and work with and understand the technology around them. Having students learn coding at a young age prepares them for the future. This activity give me the opportunity to engage my students in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics.
As a STEM teacher, I believe that coding will give to many opportunities to my students for the following reasons:
Coders are in high demand
Coding provides a competitive advantage when applying to colleges, internships, and jobs
With coding knowledge, students better understand the world around them
Coding is fun and satisfying
Coding improves creativity
Coding improves problem solving
Coding improves persistence
Coding improves collaboration
Coding improves communication”
