It is very difficult to teach science, when you do not have a laboratory room, much less with technology. Most of my students do not speak English, and many times they feel discouraged to give their best. However, once you have the facility to use technology, they may feel more committed to continue attending classes with the encouragement that they will have the technology that will help them acquire English, at the same time learn science and be able to develop all the scientific skills necessary to succeed academically. Therefore our students will have the opportunity to use this equipment to facilitate the search for information, due to their scarce economic resources. We will also be promoting group work and critical and analytical thinking in this project. Students will be use this equipment to access virtual lab activities where they can help them have an authentic educational experience. For example, they can keep a record of observations and data in these 20 tablets, which can be easily transferred among themselves. Students that are working in a group can share information through email, google classroom and other applications. It will be a useful tools for them goals. I'm also requesting a document camera that could help me to give the best lesson. It also allows me to handle information in less time, so that more material can be learned in class.
