My Project

My computer serves as so much nowadays. After coming back from virtual teaching, it has become almost 100% necessary in my everyday teaching. I've realized how much paper I have been able to save by doing assignments virtually in front of my class. We use programs that allow students to directly write on attachments instead. I project these types of assignments and model it for them or we complete it as a class.

I use a computer everyday to teach.

I project my the internet, document camera, and white board through my computer! It's our learning hub.

In addition to teaching directly from my computer to model for my students, I also use it for lesson-planning, grading, and communicating with ALL stakeholders. It has become such a vital tool in my profession and why not have an awesome computer to use for my awesome students? Technology glitches and outdated equipment shouldn't hinder learning in my classroom.
