My Students

My students are inner city students and this is the first year we are offering the AP World History course.

My students are great and exited about leering history.

Each student brings so much to the table and i would love to enhance Thier learning by getting them this gift. Most of them work hard and I would like to help them with their learning by showing them more...they give so much and they deserve this!

My Project

The notebook computer will be a viable transition to the virtual world. It will help me enhance my students learning with PowerPoint presentations and the ability to help them with primary and secondary sources. The notebook will help me create a curriculum that is virtual and this notebook will be just for my AP world history class.

This will not only help the students of this year, but subsequent years.

It is important to show them Internet sites that has primary and secondary sources. I am creating this curriculum and I have a lot of resources that I need to organize. It will benefit my students and enhance their learning.
