Hard Drives for Hard Work

Help me give my students a place to store their digital work. Storage is hard to come by in students' devices, and a portable hard drive helps preserve their hard work.

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

During the course of the school year, my creative and hard working high school students produce a good amount of digital work in the form of presentations, documents, forms, Kami and Canva products. As a teacher, I rely on these products to share from year to year with new students.

Hard drives for storage can help me preserve digital models for years to come.

There have been too many times when I am forced to delete really great exemplars due to lack of storage. For this reason, I am requesting an external hard drive to preserve my students' work.
