Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

By investing in professional development with an iPad and MacBook, I will gain the skills and tools needed to integrate cutting-edge technology into my STEM curriculum. I plan to use these devices to explore innovative teaching methods, access advanced educational software, and stay current with emerging trends in STEM education. This will enable me to design and implement interactive, technology-driven lessons that cater to diverse learning styles and foster deeper engagement with STEM subjects.

My students will benefit from more dynamic and immersive learning experiences, including hands-on projects, real-time feedback, and promoting STEM to others.

Additionally, they will have the opportunity to participate in community outreach programs, where they can showcase their STEM projects and help promote STEM education to others. This involvement will enhance their learning while allowing them to contribute to the community, further developing their skills and interest in STEM fields.
