Computers for Academic Workshop

My students need computers in order to complete assignments in their AP Composition and AP Literature classes. For many students, computers and Internet access is an equity issue, and having access to technology helps students succeed.

My Students

Students who are enrolled in Academic Workshop are usually enrolled in our school's AVID program, which is a high school program for young people who are traditionally underrepresented in higher education, which includes minorities and students who are the first generation in their families to go to college.

My students have a strong work ethic and big dreams, and frequently, all they need to achieve success is a little extra support and encouragement.

They say it takes a village to raise a child, and I am happy to be part of the village supporting the inspiring young people in our school.

My Project

Academic Workshop at East is a workshop where students can access teachers, peers and technology so they can be successful in their AP and honors classes. Academic Workshop is only in its second year at East, and it has already helped students succeed in their AP level coursework.

One way Academic Workshop addresses equity issues in our student's lives is to provide access to computers in the workshop which supports AP Composition and AP Literature, which I teach.

My class has fourteen students, and I currently have only a few older netbooks and laptops. The computers in this project will increase access to technology and give my students tools which they need to improve their writing, a valuable skill which will serve them in college and in their lives after college.
