While having a projector is nice, there are some things that just look and function better on a tv. But, the tv's we have are the old tube TVs that are literally older than the high school students I teach. They've never even grown up knowing what one is. I teach them about science and they have to look at it through well-outdated technology. If they are going to experience science to it's fullest it might as well be in HD. So, it's time to give them the upgrade they deserve. I know that they will be even more excited and engaged once we get them some decent technology.
