My Project

Collaboration, civil discourse, conversation - 3 components necessary in a healthy democratic society. In our 12th grade government and economics courses we incorporate all three of these on almost a daily basis. Students work in groups to identify issues, research information, and offer solutions. It can become difficult to find areas for students to share out ideas, or brainstorm in a way all the group members can participate.

Having multiple surfaces for students to collaborate is extremely important for brainstorming, information collection, presentations, and concept mapping.

The larger surface will be more inviting for all members of the group to participate.

The mobile whiteboards will offer more students access to these surfaces, as well as the ability to move them easily around the room for comfort and presentations.

And lastly, the whiteboards are reusable. So we won't be going through large pieces of paper that are then just thrown in the garbage. Reducing our consumption of disposable materials is a win for the students, the school budget, and the environment as a whole.
