Impact to My Classroom

# of Students Impacted: 140

Students are encouraged to bring their smart devices to school as part of the Collier Schools' Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) to school intiative.  Since student devices are constantly being used, they frequently run out of power while at school.  The impact of this grant is that a 10-port charging station has been purchased and is being fully utilized in my classroom.  Now, any of the 140 IT Academy students can plug in and charge their device when they enter the IT Academy classroom.  Both Apple and Android devices can be charged and student devices will always be ready to go when needed.  A big "Thank You" to the Perna-Rose Foundation of Hope for funding the "CYOD-Charge Your Own Device" classroom grant request for $85!

Original Grant Overview

Goal(s)

Ensure student BYOD devices are charged and ready to go.  

 

Project Description

The CCPS BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) initiative has encouraged students to bring their own technology into the classroom and motivated teachers to utilize this technology in their instruction. An unintended consequence of students constantly using their devices is that they often have low or no power. A technology charging station in my classroom will allow my 150 students to keep their devices fully charged. 

 

Expected Outcomes

Student BYOD devices are fully charged for use inside and outside of the classroom.
