THINGS TEACHERS SAY..
“I am avoiding ‘the teacher in front of the class’ scenario. By making the assignments more student centered, each student needs to produce and be actively involved in thinking and writing.”
“The problem for me is to show them that both are essential skills [technology and traditional] because it’s somewhat of a fight … I’m struggling with classroom management issues and so everything else is like okay I’ve got to bite off a little of what I can chew and take it from there but I think its all good its just a matter of time.”
THINGS STUDENTS SAY…
“Well basically the computer is like my friend. I’ve used it a lot and I’ve learned a lot of different things about it...my teachers use me a lot on the computers , I am always fixing computers, printers, and things. That makes me feel good when I can do things the teacher can’t.”
“It scares me, when we get off the bus and have to walk home with the laptop.”
PARENTS…
“What excites me is that she’ll bring the computer home and teach me how to operate it.”
“Having the chance to learn and operate technology that they will be using as adults out in the world. This is truly preparing our children for college and beyond!”
“This project has given us more of an opportunity to learn alongside our son. It also gives us more access to communicate with teachers and administrators.”
