My Students

Our students live in a small town tucked away in the side of Oregon's Willamette Valley. The students that I have all came to me through our Agricultural Education Department. Many of them are headed into technical or specialized careers, and each of those careers touches or can touch some aspect of rural life.

In a climate of uncertainty, our students are working hard learn and pursue experiences in manufacturing and agriculture.

We continue to provide opportunities for them to learn but as it is a difficult time we do need your help to make opportunities happen.

My Project

As our students slowly returned to the classroom this year it became apparent that our old methods of learning needed to take a back seat. Previously we moved groups through various lab stations sharing tools, testing equipment, and supplies. Now we have had to switch to individual lab setups for each person. This has resulted in us having to procure more than one piece of equipment to be able to conduct the same labs. This change was most apparent when we began a unit on electrical systems and needed more multimeters.

We discovered it was past time for us to replace our small mishmash collection of tattered multimeters with uniform set of industry standard digital models.

We have needed a standardized classroom set of multimeters for some time now, but have been able to get by with using single station setups. With changes in the methods of education we need to move beyond group labs and put tools in the hands of each student.
