Most of our students are from middle to lower middle class, and not all have access to high speed internet at their homes. The school provides the majority of their access to the internet.
Position:
Teacher
Needs:
My class needs a boost in technology. Our district struggles to provide enough opportunities with technology for all students, particularly in the sciences. With a boost in technology, I hope to allow the students to grow and expand in their understanding of the world.
My Philosophy:
I believe the role of a teacher is to give the students the basics and then get out of the way and let them learn by doing and getting their hands dirty.
