Students learn at different paces and it is a teacher's role to meet the students where they are an push all of them to the next level. This Microsoft Go will allow me to better create enrichment opportunities for students whose curiosity goes beyond the lesson. Independently, with a partner or in small group, I envision students using this device to indulge their inquisitiveness of our history. Some students might need more support when learning about our Nation's past. I also envision students using this device as supportive technology to better grasp our historic material. This could be through digital timelines, short video clips, or images of the time period. By connecting this device to the classroom SMARTBoard, it also provides another connection to the subject matter in an individualized format. Thank you for your consideration with this project.
