My Project

As a teacher and the Work-Based Learning Coordinator for my school, I am in charge of managing my classload of students and find internships and career opportunities for the entire student body. However, my role is made more difficult because of a non-functional workstation. I am unable to complete my responsibilities because the computer I currently have is too slow. Unfortunately, I'm not even able to download Microsoft Outlook because the computer can't handle the application and I'm currently running Microsoft Office 2011.

Without a proper workstation, it is a disservice to my students and the student body because I am unable to work as efficiently as possible.
