Nassau Education Foundation

The goal is to use Windows operating systems in new computers for Robotics Club so students can properly run the coding software and update four robots using functional USB ports. Having functional computers will enable students to use updated technology so they can write the code for their robots effectively and compete against other teams in the upcoming school year

The goal for Cricut Club is to have one computer for each of three Cricut cutting machines that will run Design Space software to operate them. The software will not run on chrome books. The end goal is make the Cricut Club a self-sustaining fundraising club to to give back to the school and the community.

Dr. Middleton has been informed of the technology request and she will let Crissy Bass know of my request for this grant.

What will be done with my students

My students will use the laptops for Scratch Code to program their Lego Prime Robots. I want to be able to take them to a Lego robotics competition next year..

Students will also use the laptops for Cricut Design Space software to work on school beautification projects and fundraising.  

 

Benefits to my students

I have always been interested in project based learning. By running after school clubs, I can teach students how to do projects and problem solve. When I focus on after school clubs, I will gain the skill needed to implement more project based learning in the classroom that goes with the standards we are required to teach each year. 

 

Budget Narrative

I am requesting four laptop computers that are $214.56 each. I will use all four computers for Robotics Club and three of them for Cricut Club. I priced them off of Amazon.com.
