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

In Criminology & Behavioral Sciences AVID, I help prepare students for a four-year college focusing on criminology and forensics. They will use the iPad to continue their group work on their online forensics project while learning how to properly use technology.

In addition, students can learn in various ways, including through research, collaboration, and creativity.

I believe that iPads can also help with differentiated instruction to meet the needs of all students while gaining knowledge for their future college and career goals. Furthermore, students will not only improve their digital literacy skills but also be able to use different apps to explore forensics.
