What I am hoping takes place at my school is that all students, from the lower grades to the middle school, are able to have a one-to-one device that they can use for their learning. This will include some type of tablet for the younger students to a Chromebook for students in the upper elementary and middle school grades. These devices can be used by the students to be able to work on their reading, mathematics skills through the use of online videos and games, and more importantly, to conduct their own research and be able to present it instead of just writing it down. This is something that is not currently in place at my school so this will be something new to all my fellow teachers. However, I hope that I can teach the teachers how beneficial these gadgets are to the learning of the material for the students. What I am afraid of is that many of the teachers are not willing to give some of the power over the class to the students. Teachers at my school must be willing to allow the students some power to do their own research, be able to adjust their classroom so that students have the time to work on their computers, and that the teachers are willing to take the time to learn what I have to offer them.
