Students in my classroom have experienced the most success when they’ve been able to demonstrate their mastery of a concept through the use of technology. With a lack of resources and funds, we have been limited to using graphic organizers and sharing computers for publishing writing assignments. These Chromebooks will allow students to boost their confidence and motivate them to complete tasks that require higher amounts of focus and concentration. This additional resource would supplement the writing instruction and would give students the option of editing and submitting projects electronically. I want my students to continue developing literacy skills and intend on making sure my students are college ready by exposing them to different programs and software that many higher institutions use such as Google Doc, Excel, PowerPoint, Adobe Reader, etc. My students are very much aware that school is one of the only places where they’ll have access to a variety of instructional tools and my hope is that they’ll go to high school maybe even college with a working knowledge of how to use these programs. Having access to these Chromebooks will allow students to build healthy study habits and self-regulation strategies to help keep them composed during stressful situations. I have noticed that integrating technology in the lessons has helped reduce behavioral outbursts and have allowed students to really flourish. Students are engaged and completely immersed in what they are doing when given the option to produce something in writing on a word processing program or practice a skill on an online game. Students have also been observed helping each other when playing online games and doing group projects. With these new Chromebooks, my students will have the ability to explore other programs and creatively complete projects using computer applications. Thank you in advance.
