My students need Clorox cleaning supplies for our new CPR dummies to prevent the spread of illness and bacteria. The Sharp 43"Class LED Smart TV will be used to watch the CPR/First Aid Demonstration Video.
My students are driven, brilliant and motivated. They have desires to explore their ever-changing community in new and technologically advanced ways. They want to learn more about themselves and others through the new Health curriculum that was brought into their school district. These students work well in small enrichment groups where they are able to better represent themselves through project and group-based learning. Students are working on a pilot curriculum for Health Education to learn more about themselves, each other and their community.
My students desire hands-on projects overwritten work to show their knowledge and understanding of topics.
They have a profound interest in using technology. Today's classroom is simply not set up for these new learners. Topics include Health, Nutrition, Drugs and Alcohol, Emotional/Mental Health, Consumer Health as well as First Aid and CPR. Students will be working on growth and development as well as exploring the reproductive health of both males and females. This group of students would like to use their new technology to push the envelope when it comes to First Aid, CPR and Safety practices.
My Project
Our Health Class recently received full funding to purchase and receive CPR manikins and a practice AED for our First Aid/CPR unit. We now need a way to view the DVD and materials to help teach and demonstrate the best safety practices to the students. Our classroom has no HDMI connection to the classroom computer and does not have a mounted projector. The Smart TV will be set up in the front of the class so the students can watch and practice using their new CPR manikins.
With the new technology, students will be able to view our power points and videos on a larger screen.
Currently, our class uses an Ipad with a ladybug projector to view materials. This makes it very difficult for a class of 20 to view the information.
