My Students

My students are eager to get a good grade in the upcoming AP Exam. They need to have newer and faster tool to review their understanding of the learned materials. This scanner will provide the best tool in coping that.

We are an urban public school.

All student body is 90% minority. We are a science magnet school within the school district. Our students are from family of underserved and our school is a Title I school. Most of us qualified for free lunch program provided by the district.

My Project

We will use this instant scanning device for formative assessment to prepare for the upcoming exams in Advanced Placement. The device will identify the weakness of each student and identify the items of the content needed be re-enforeced or retaught.

Your support will greatly enhance the performance of our students in the upcoming AP exam.

The formative assessment tool will aid the teacher to modify the lessons or strengthen the students weakness in certain areas to be identified.
