My Project

Please help me modernize our classroom to enhance student learning. This technology will allow for displaying presentations, apps, videos, and so much more on our interactive board.

Teaching through technology is both engaging and effective in the classroom.

These devices will allow me to navigate through lessons seamlessly and to present from anywhere in the classroom. This not only saves a great deal of time, but also allows me to easily monitor and assist students while teaching at the same time. This will also allow me to incorporate engaging elements, such as music and sound clips, with the touch of a button.
