My Students

I am learning how to more effectively implement technology in my classroom. In an attempt to empower twenty-first century learners frequently, the main problem is the lack of technology. Students today play, learn, and make sense of the world around them with technology in their everyday lives. Please allow for my students to not have this limitation in their education as well. Please help my students be able to learn in a way that is more comfortable and suitable to their everyday life.

My Project

I would like for my students to be researchers and be able to more effectively find and understand the content they are learning about. With these Chromebooks, my students will be able to use technology in their everyday learning. Currently, I am unable to effectively allow for students who live in a twenty-first century world, to learn as if they do.

The students will be able to use technology in the classroom to not only enhance their ability to learn content, but express their learning as well.

My students need outlets for their understanding that more effectively mirror their everyday life and everyday technological use.
