Technology: Visual and Media Literacy!

Funded Feb 25, 2010

I can't thank you enough for your generous contributions! My classroom is sorely lacking in technology. Our school has grown from a K-5 to a K-8 with extremely little funding for the transition, and the school is struggling to keep up with technology as well as provide access to all students in one computer lab. My classes share the lab with the entire 4-8th grades in the school. With your generosity, my students will now have easy access to a laptop in the classroom, and we can utilize it for visual presentations, individual work on our zines, internet research, and a million other things!

My students will greatly benefit from the netbook in the classroom. I love to see students excited about learning, and your contributions are making that happen!! My students' lives are going to improve by becoming better at creating and giving visual presentations, learning about research skills and finding valid information, and just generally becoming more comfortable with the technology they will eventually use in the workforce. You have given my students a great gift, and I am extremely grateful.”

With gratitude,

Mrs. Gray
