My Students

Regardless of a return to in person instruction or the option to stay virtual- all students will be excited and ready to learn after the last year of virtual school. They all have strong desires to return to education in person, but even then students use online programs to help with literacy and math improvement.

My Project

This year I used my personal computer, a Mac, to teach virtually. It made all the difference when compared to the district provided laptop in terms of speed, capacity, and functionality. I would like to continue using one for teaching without sentencing my own to its final moments.

This product keeps the technical issues to a minimum and offers seamless transition with paired devices, such as the iPad, to offer multiple screens and flexibility with instruction.

No more turning on the laptop and waiting 45 minutes because of multiple updates or dealing with lag because the processor can't keep up with the amount of tabs open. It is reliable, easy to use, and lasts all day without overheating.
