My Project

Primary students often engage in hands-on learning activities involving technology. These activities lead to wear and tear on equipment like headphones, mice, and keyboards. I see primary students in my computer lab everyday. Although we practice, sometimes my young learners may not always handle these devices with the utmost care and it is essential to invest in durable user-friendly replacements. Headphones should be comfortable, with adjustable headbands and soft ear cushions to accommodate smaller heads. Mice and keyboards should be robust, with spill-resistant features and ergonomic designs suitable for young hands. My students always expect to use technology as part of instruction and my goal is to continue making technology assessable by have the needed tools available and ready for the learning experience.
