We Can See Clearly Now!

Help me give my students the best online school experience possible by giving us an AppleTV so I can see them clearly on a big screen and address their learning needs.

My Students

My students are happy, hardworking first graders who love school and really embody the joy of learning. They are immigrants or the children of immigrants and are mostly second language learners. The children attend a medium-sized, urban elementary school which cannot afford to provide all of the resources that we might want to share with them. Unfortunately, their parents are often unable to provide these extras either. As teachers, we believe that our kids deserve to have all the same experiences and opportunities as their more well-off counterparts. The kids are eager to learn, and it is our responsibility to help them succeed.

My Project

Teaching remotely has presented us all with a new set of challenges that we've never experienced before. Not the least of these is trying to see a whole class of 24 students when they only appear in tiny little boxes on the computer screen. An AppleTV will help to alleviate that problem.

It's important to be able to see and focus on students in the classroom--and its even more important when those students are online.

An AppleTV will allow me to mirror my computer screen on my television so that I can really focus in on individual students and see what they are doing. I can more easily see who needs my immediate help and who is working well independently. When we eventually return to the classroom, I will be able to use this same device to mirror lessons, demonstrate learning websites, and have the children show their own screens. Teaching is changing fast, and it is important that we have the tools to do the best job we can.
