My Students

Students in the 21st century need to be exposed to learning technologies and digital skills. I am seeking a Surface Pro to present my daily lessons using a variety of interactive educational platforms. This will allow students to interact throughout our lessons and see the note-taking skills modeled.

My Project

I am hoping to use interactive technology to provide more engaging lessons for students that help develop 21st century skills. All students need to be interacting and engaging with the material in order to truly understand the concepts, so interactive notes brings all students the ability to actively learn and collaborate with others. This technology allows me to continue to use the important note-taking skills of pen-and-paper learning with the interactive elements of digital education in order to optimize the learning experience of all students now that we are back to learning in person.
