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

Currently my school does not have enough computers to lend in case their computers suddenly stop working. This is an inconvenience to me and the students, because this disrupts their learning. Students are not able to continue with their assignments in class because they don't have another device. This causes a lot of stress to the students and discourages them from doing any other work in class.

Having an extra desktop computer in class will give the students a peace of mind, knowing that they have an extra device in class that they can utilize in case theirs breaks down.

With this desktop computer, students will be able to do research, also access our textbook online and do research online.
