My Project

The MacBook will provide my students with accurate, instant feedback. The MacBook will allow me to create Google Docs, Google Slides, and PDFs for my students to facilitate their learning process. My students need efficient feedback learning, and the MacBook will help make this possible. The MacBook will provide an engaging and meaningful curriculum for my students. The MacBook will also provide my students with technology-enhanced learning to accommodate several types of pedagogical approaches shown to increase student engagement, knowledge, and desire to learn.

This MacBook will allow me to keep up with all my students' needs.
