Highland Oaks Middle School
Hometown:
Miami
Class Information:

Students per Class: 130
Class Description:
The five classes I teach are comprised of students from the ages of 13-15. The students are ethnically diverse, as the school is located in Miami, Florida. The population is as follows: Caucasion 30%, Black 26.7%, Hispanic 39.2%, Asian 1.9%, and Mulitracial 1.7%. The students are 48.5% female and 51.5% males. THe students come from varied socio-economic levels.
Position:
Science Teacher
My Philosophy:
My belief is that students learn science best when some form of technology is integrated into the curriculum. This generation is technology savy. I want our students to have the best learning experience through technology. I believe the use of digital cameras will be helpful in the classroom, as a multitude of experiences will be taken to a higher level of thinking. IF students performed an experiment, photographed it, and then created a PowerPoint presentation, the learning would be much more effective.
