Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

During these unprecedented times, our students have made major strides to fully participate in online learning. The first challenge to hurdle was to provide resources. What you and I may consider a necessity like wi-fi and technology is really a luxury for my students. Located in the heart of the South Bronx, very few students have those resources available.

My Project

As we dive into this new uncharted territory some major issues have come to surface. For one, we have students excited and ready for school, yet their ABILITY to participate in remote learning has been far from joyous.

They have been met with the challenge of learning new platforms, new teachers, new procedures, new security measures and worst of all BROKEN or inoperable technology.

While the DOE did provide iPads for some students, it is extremely difficult to navigate google classroom on an iPad almost impossible to type papers or extended responses and toggle from zoom to google classroom. Never mind the fact that the wi-fi is not strong enough to support.
