My Project

As a 22 year (veteran) educational instructor in the state of Georgia, the needs for the classroom have significantly increased and changed from the simple days of a computer lab. Since the past and present, COVID19 pandemic students require and need classroom technology that is both current and versatile.

When trying to comply with all needs per student, per class it is necessary, or rather required, to have headphones, numerous communication devices and webcams to contend with academic plans, personal happenstances, and emergencies that can arise within the course of day.

Having the ability to have what is needed, for my classroom and "teaching-tech" gives my students and all students a safe and viable high school experience.
