Anna's Speech for EdTech

We set 3 goals to abide by when selecting technology for our school. 1st: Teaching kids the importance of exercise and incorporating technology that they enjoy.

-In todays culture children are constantly engaged in technological entertainment. We decided that we would be able to greatly improve the quality of our PE department by engaging children in activities that they would enjoy while still getting to work out. Scottie will be sharing with you some of those improvements.

2nd: Be able to present music in a more technology advanced way so students can create music on their own. -We decided to place more technology into music classes to create a more enjoyable class. We would also be able to teach students how music and technology can be closely related. This would give our school a top notch program that would help kids develop as individuals and learn new skills.

Finally: Bring subjects to life by creating a new view or by giving students a new way to view the world through technology. Incorporating technology in classes -While we spent a large amount of money in specific classes we decided to also improve the quality of a specific grade level. We chose to focus specifically on fourth grade classes as well as a special Ed class. By purchasing technology in the classroom we will be able to help students enjoy what they are learning and see things in a new light.
